Humidity & Fungus Among Us

The air outside has a swampy feel
Take a breath, humidity is real
And, everywhere that I go
There's a crazy mushroom show
🍄
Mycelium has been lying in wait
Until the moisture level was great
On Earth, reproduction is the rule
Time to push up the ole toadstool
Big or small, most have had a chew
Hopefully, after spores into view
Turtles, squirrels, lots of bugs
Are the 'shroom munching thugs
Stalled front just to our south
Has us living in humidity's mouth
Not really hot, just really muggy
And, amazingly, not too buggy
Not seeing many hit the windshield
Another warming sign revealed
Insect numbers seem to be dropping
Pollination help could be stopping
Then what are we going to eat
Fewer plants & less meat
Today On Earth

Eastern Aleutians still got the shakes
Indonesia, Ghina, Peru w/ rock breaks
Puerto Rico & Idaho
Still aftershocking some mo'
On the sun, spots are stirring
Least no hurricanes a'whirring
Still picking up from when Isaias
Spreading carnage, came to see us
Odds are no storms on the way
Just a warm, sticky feel today
Go outside, you're gonna sweat
"It feels close",  oh, you bet
Today On Earth

Another 1,287 Americans gone away
Prez don't care, says that's OK
Another 60,184 cases, daily report
"It is what it is", our "leaders" retort
Prez spewing more lies about Biden
Who is wisely, staying in hidin'
Cuz it ain't safe in the USA
No time soon, ain't no way
Louisa schools open this week
First teacher deaths they seek??
Be the first to have your kid die?
Craziness, I do not see why
But, we each have a role
To get this under control
Pretty simple, not much to ask
When you go out, wear a mask
Easy way to stop the spread
So, 1,200 daily don't end up dead
Long as assholes say, "got my rights"
No TrumpVirus end, in our sights
Today On Earth
So, stay safe, stay apart
Mask up, it's just smart!!
