Blaise Pascal awaits his last call
beneath Saint Etienne-du-Mont's tall
columns and old rood screen. God's nature,
pray, ups the odds on his last wager.

Trump drools to be in charge and boast
That he's the god host we should toast
Yet Don’s now upset
Since the odds on bet
Ranks him behind great Caesar’s ghost

Climate change, a threat!
All bookies odds are odds-on,
Would one want to bet?
Look, can you not see sorrow?
Climate change a threat!
Wildlife, that was, disappeared!
No good now regret!
Natures warnings all denied!
Build your own rocket.
The clock near to striking doom!
Climate change a threat!

I do not know?
Despair clouds of anger in drought
Toll its rhyme washed own trust
Escape its face aged still crisp visions veil
Replace with faceless shame pave title of hate
Close its sphere hangs prejudices nowhere
Odds-on steps surveil passages soak in conflict
Tender the pain redeem its sins thrill magnitude
Suicidal thought be drug calm relax face the coming day

Velcro shod man
lingers in the V.A. clinic
for yet another visit;
he slowly turns pages,
reading pictures.
Withered man
peeking from beneath bushy eyebrows
laying odds on another day
at the park: stooping
to stop the ball
a kid just threw curved
into the wheelchair.
Sitting
his old bowed head
white and sparse of hair
a tired head,
tired of waiting
to finish
the landing.
