Putting it in perspectiveA Poem by M J HuttonThe oceans are rising The ice caps are melting, I’m stuck in the bookies With an old bloke rambling. A drought in Africa The sub continent starve I’ve bought some canesten For the thrush on me knob. The rain forests are dead Dictators commit genocide Arsenal have just won I couldn’t give a toss. The war on terror escalates, Nuclear production in Iran, I forgot my girlfriend’s birthday She’s gonna go mad. Gas emissions are destructive The ozone layer wilts away, I’m gonna phone in sick Cos I had too much to drink. A new virus may kill millions A tsunami’s on the way, I better get a pay rise Or I’ll have a f*****g lot to say… © 2008 M J Hutton |
