Fossil Fuelled

"burying the future" - so many do this, preferring to dig up the past. I have never figured it out.

Nice one PT, I like your wordplay and your pointed message. The Governor of California just announced that as of 2035, no internal combustion vehicles are to be sold in the state.

Yes, that can indeed be a side effect.

Live today Burn tomorrow

Exactly write. Profound.

Digging up the past -imagine all that irreplaceable coal for fuel - polluting the atmosphere and bringing about climate change. Burying the future - how long can it last. Making excuses so that we can carry on digging up the past. HUGS, jENNIFER Clever and spot on. Hugs, Jennifer.

Yes, love it. It took millions of years to bury all the carbon, and we shall undig it in only a couple of hundred. Pretty dumb. The problem is that some people are getting by doing this and others are getting very rich. They don't want their gravy train to end, and they are unwilling to transfer to another train.

ohh, aren't we guilty of this sonetimes, vie?... your beautiful soul reflects once more...huggs

Such a big, intelligent thought. Such few words needed. You amaze me

Perfect and truthful Senryu. A very succinct thought. ~~

Wow super Mo you always produce the best ku’s time and time again, this one speaks no cries for itself, will the powers that be heed it, hell no, cheers David

Dead on, Mo. Your pithy poetry drills down deep with so few words. You amaze me, Ms Tart :)) Warmest wishes always, my friend <3

Ooh, this is good, Mo. Right into my FAVES. This should be writ large on a poster all over the world! :) gw

wonderfully said! we are burning all over Cali and still got lots of excuses :)

you're so good at saying so much in just a few words, maureen, and this is a perfect example of that...

Well thought and said; worth the wait! Aloha! Rico

It's well preserved...just waiting to be used again...Nice effect here

Great use of contrasting ideas, if we learn from the past, we must protect the future-

Frackin frackitty frack... As always Maureen, you've said so much with so few words. I have to learn to stop babbling and follow YOU!!! thanks

So true, and so well put.

Brilliant write--awesome message, Maureen.

oh, that's all backwards, but seemingly so fitting in today's world. Rebury the past, Mo, and look forward to a better future.

I feel some sadness in this one. Hugs xx
