Shift Change
another day slides
obliquely into dusk
clouds yawning
in a graying pall
darkness peeks
from beneath
a sulfurous moon
eyeing its fleeing prey

Changed climate is not a surprise
With drilling for gas on the rise
Where can life forms hide
From carbon dioxide
And methane let loose in the skies?
Neo-druids auger gas wells
And add fluids with sulfurous smells!
Are poisons they've tapped
With their magic wands trapped
Evermore by sorcerous spells?
Votes and news seem not relevant
The unrelenting elephant
In all our best rooms
Is fossil fuel's fumes
And toxins we can't circumvent

Limerick
My eyes watered
from the sulfurous stench of your disdain
as you turned those empty eyes my way
My skin crawled
from the leathery touch of your insensitivity
as your talons absently clawed my flesh
My soul shivered
from the the cold wind of your indifference
as you flew away on your mighty wings
The fires that may burn in Hell
to warm a Devil I have not met
hold no fear for me
For I have lived all these years
in the cold, cold shadow
of the Devil I knew
