The Climate

The climate

Is an elephant on opium
Weaned off.
Going berserk 
Throwing things around 
Tearing the
Polaris into fragments.
Hurricanes
Storms
Flooding.
Scorching summers
Arctic winters
There is no end
To the elephants
Despair.
Slim the elephant
Normal food
It will soften
Its rampage
And trumpeting.

What will it take to soften the hearts of humans before it's too late. Or... maybe it already is.
