R ' evolution

A Poem by LR Young

i just read somewhere
(maybe orion, an old copy, a story
I had passed by that Erhlich
had written) about the northern
hemisphere shedding it's glacier.
This is nothing new of course, but
how the trees march towards ice caps,
like Macbeth's worst nightmare,
how polar bears, the natives say
are turning brown.
Here I am sitting in a swell of
midsummer heat (and it's not even
June), the air cocooned invisible
but I can feel it breathing on
me, close enough for a
staring contest.
