Global Warming
It’s often said that Man is very smart.
His cleverness is quite remarkable.
His brain, a rather special body part
Is hardly capable of being dull.
He never calculates and meditates
His every thought and actions. Never fails
To please himself no matter what it takes.
He always seems to overlook details
The ones that mean the most to you and me.
He doesn’t give a fig about the Earth,
It’s woes and fragileness. He often sees
The problems myopically. His mirth
Unfounded, still neglecter of warnings:
Our life-styles are causing global warming
