News From the Helheim Glacier
as the temperatures continue to rise, so will the seas,
at seven inches the norm per century
for two centuries past, but also an alarm,
it continues to sound, but cannot be heard.
politicians all bickering this science is absurd
waste away the next century, the seas continue to rise.
those seven inches will exacerbate into feet
if climate control does not come early in the next hundred sessions
our unemployment will be solved, not by educating for change
but to provide dike builders and gondola drivers
upon our wasted shores.
