PoeArtry by Charles Frederickson & Saknarin Chinayote
Earth’s spit-polished veneer chipped away
Without skin we cannot live
Sea levels rise coastlines retreat
Overflowing glacial teardrops flooding basins
Spitfire core molten anima meltdown
Crust scraped like burnt toast
Streaming butter sugary cinnamon sprinkles
Teapot spout letting off steam
Wanton destruction of lonesome planet
Diminishing water supplies agricultural clashes
Recycled excuses uprooted windswept soil
Heat waves droughts tempestuous extremes
Smoothing wrinkles soothing battle scars
Plump wrathful grapes sun-dried sultanas
Twisted clinging vines seedless clusters
Early hoarfrost siege strip searched
Climate change shattering glass greenhouses
Scorned thunderbolt fury lightning rage
Flash floods clear as mudslides
Tornados funneling disaster homeless refugees
Nothing remains behind thin-skinned masque
Groovy slits baiting nebulous void
Bipolar pointless compass run amok
Desperate humanimal instinct leaking out
