I look for light these troubled times
As inspiration
for my rhymes
But bad news tends
to dominate;
What is this world we now create?
New leaders
come upon the stage
Recalling times
that still enrage;
With the D.T.* lobby in the wings
We ponder
roundabouts and swings!
Thin ice, as
climate change pervades
South-East Asia
– under waves?
Mask-wearing now
so déjà vu
But is life
safe – for me and you?
Millennials seem
smug, content
With their
computer lives now spent
Through
screens, on-line, and all alone
Contact reduced
to mobile phone …
Meanwhile, the
glaciers drop away…
Bush fires - the
order of the day?
Floods,
tsunamis, rental hikes …
Is Armageddon
in our sights?
