HAVE FUN WHILE YOU CAN.

There’s crazy warm weather all over the world
At the moment
And some see it as an omen screaming ‘End of days’
As the rays fall,
Whilst others remain prostrated
Beneath the weight of it.

And in Wisconsin noises echo in the evening
And early morning
As warning sounds mount from the ever ready crowd
Announcing Armageddon
Whilst prepping as eagerly as possible
For the loss of it all.

There are culture hunters bemoaning the lack
Of modern attractions
Even as they knock back the last book of the bible
With a bottle of vodka
And joke about the disclosures
It proposes,

And scientific dicks mix their metaphors as they
Discover more,
Even though their theories are weirder than Ragnarok
And its aftershocks,
And continue to smash atoms as if
Nothing mattered;

Yes today there’s a long list of applicable disasters
Awaiting a cast of characters
To attribute significance to and announce a cataclysmic
Piss is about to hit us
Even as most of us go about the business
Of insisting it isn’t.
