Flood Plain
The climate changes itself to suit itself.
Humankind’s arrogant bluster adds nor
Subtracts not a tittle in the gravity of things.
Rioting winds have destroyed and played
On the flood plain since time began.
Humans controlling climate change is like
Humans saving time: Daylight Saving Time—
That imaginary figment of someone’s fevered brain:
Imagine making a blanket longer by cutting off
One end and sewing it to the other.
When the Divine Creator fashioned this mud ball
Of a planet, he gave some people the ability to sense
That this Earth is a really big orb, and no number
Of little human beings no matter how much they breathe
Can ever change what God made immutable.
