Global Warming
merciless sun, it curdles voices
before they can utter the first breath of a phrase.
no words of truth, all but forgotten,
replaced by joints of ants
which swell dutiful and aching
over sands that eat them as they erode.
lies and lies and lies
in lines and lines and lines
march through eyes and brains and breaths--
to follow all the other busy lines of lies,
which have burned themselves out
in the red chew of destiny.
they who serve the most know the least,
and in the duty and drone of their obeisance,
never see their 'Higher Purpose'
fry the wings off its creations.
