Ecobabble Poems | Examples

Mark My Words

I could close my eyes
and pretend
alternative facts exist
but I won't
perhaps I am too old or set in my ways
to comprehend the nonsensical ecobabble
that denigrates global warming as a hoax  
a political millstone
liberals hung around the necks of gullible fools
designed to grind down progress and high profits 
but that is a lie
Earth is in distress
our planet is not an inexhaustible resource
we are insensitive to nature's limits
and we will suffer for it
mark my words
