The Low That Won't Go..

It's not a hurricane, but it's similar
And, for days, it ain't gone very far
Now it's slipping south, then back west
Gonna get another weekend rain test
Huge waves hammering the coast
Rodanthe, more homes w/ last toast
Build on a flood plane or big sand bar
Maybe got money but not a mental star
Gonna get flooded or washed away
Earth is great place, but it still don't play
W/ Low stuck, so is our High
Means..hang on..wind is gonna fly
High in Argentine Andes, 6.8 quake
If rock gonna move, rock gonna break
Felt as far off as Santiago, Chile'
Some damage, injuries, aftershocks, ole'
Rest of the quake list, mostly small
On nearby star, still a sunspot ball
Moon waxing gibbous, not easily seen
Trying to shine thru sea of green
Right now shadows dancing in the yard
Wind still blowing, close to hard
TrumpVirus cases back on the rise
In land of science denial, no surprise
Gas prices back to record highs
Big oil greed, don't even try to disguise
Stock prices continue to crash
We know brokers ain't losing their ass
Rich just pass it along, smile & deny
Claim: to get there, harder we should try
Heat & fires, storms w/ floods & tornado
And, here we are, no place else to go
Forecast: big heat coming & very soon
Anti-science deniers singing same tune
We focus on inflation & abortion
How in US we can get a bigger portion
Burn more oil, live high on the hog
Any good change, big biz w/ the clog
Reality coming to land of milk & honey
Discover can't eat stocks, oil or money
Desert SW sucked Rockies & Sierras dry
Steal water from Great Lake, gonna try
Still building more bombs & guns
Only use, kill more daughters & sons
Mine & mine & drill & drill
Every time, another poison spill
More & more & grow & grow
On & on & on we go
"But, no water for my desert lawn"
In his penthouse, a fat cat w/ a yawn
Tipping points always seen too late
Sadly, I fear, we've no long to wait
Today On Earth

Fortunately, there is still art
Turn Up The Paint
