COP27 now 05:33

And Pelin decided against children COP 27 now Maturing At least Mum's hope Such brilliance, no fear Open to all, to hear And yet, wrong paths Or delayed fasts Like Augustine Give me less But not just yet And Pelin decided against children Pelin, aged 37 now History to tell Our path for all to see Calm under pressure Little to foretell The future less clear Except the lessons Of those times passed Misread or deceived Calmly she ends With smiles and resignation And Pelin decided against children At dinner, 67 now Our credulous vet Their stories retold From media's fold The stories moulded Retreating in power Socials present the hour And monies to cower Overwhelm, not new So they claim And Pelin decided against children Shocker, 47 now Jocks and darkness And this is mature Got a job, whatever Boss talks, together We're few, but supported By money, influence Ideology, freedoms To deceive, relieve Our leaders Deceivers For one more decade, Receivers And Pelin decided against children Earth, 8 billion now History on our side Temporary, I'll decide Drought and flooding plains We still remain. Our Neos, none tamed. Hey 67, it's sunspots Or Mediaeval Or nuclear's the answer. Now that there's a question. Once naysayers, now protectors Deception stays the norm If numbers fall, agreement torn But just one decade Or more Till we're all forlorn And Pelin decided against children And Pelin decided against children Our historian of past and future And we are all responsible

Unrelenting 05:47

Unrelenting that curve If a blind from Covid Once the butt of humour Hockey stick His dick, an alternate ascent Not the stick Bent here before Read the socials And the no shows For sky vs weather Together the link What's a degree amongst friends (Earth our friend?) A few degrees on Tahiti What we wish When we deceive Conceive in marketing That line that sticks She said it herself "When we defined it as a tax, we'd won" And yet it wasn't Like the other claims And yet we're intelligent We say And still we relent "Collective suicide" was the line Truer than tan But let's not quibble I have monies to make Bosses to placate Just another decade Nah, that curve Hockey? what stick? Marketing schtick Just us/we five or so But mouths to feed Lies to plead Misunderstandings to knead Deceptions to feed Anger to succeed Until not And then ... Unrelenting that curve

The talking cure 07:22

They're wondrous and not few That query this choice The ship and the bar Simple, unadventurous Yeah, true, not home But new and the news Understandings remain Some challenge partaken For connection, ... Not forsaken, but human Still human Perhaps bananas or mangoes, says one It's a start Perhaps travel and pistol, says two Taken aback, whoo! But talk none-the-less Sharing, understandings At least there's some People are people Good and/to heart But products of othership/society Ideology, influence, truths So travellers remain worthy If problematic Return to past It's history again Yes but no but Just 250 years Or 150 years Our wealth and power Stripped to few, unsparing, barons So denigrate, regulate News say inevitable Yet practice says now But media says so And conspiracies say no If criticals say low Test, quest / past, unmasked Yet power and monies stay Threaten, remain For how long? Is it time yet? What's history? What's future? So little test Do my minor best Talk of sunspots 67, floods and rain Nuclear our gain They too have their evidence Schmevidence The cherry picks, The paid touts, The one in 1000 Who hasn't yet relented But I just hope to remain. That history of future, Twisted and dishonest, Takes from the past God help us So it's just listen and talk, sometimes, and stay calm That's what works If anything might For the ills of the world Need the Talking Cure. Poor, but what more can we do It's so little, but due

Mars 05:52

Mars once had water We look for far and wide Clever rovers to confirm Proof of our brilliance Time, that Looking out a window Endless sea Small carrier Flipping, slipping Sickness supporting White caps cavourting As far as (winter) It's here that's living Mars unforgiving (Moon life slowing) Water endless here Rising with changes One of many stages Mars tells a storm But we deny For it's no debate Delay, procrastinate That joy and wonder From the Moon That vision From Apollo That crescent Earth above an end Or better, over naught. We must confess Our many Earths That we demand Already Our wealthy West Our pinnacle of wealth Preparing for the full ??? (Preparing for nought?) For 10 billion into 1 may go But 25 million Aussies into 7 is no As Mars does show

Here's a theme for you, from Chat GPT with just a little help, from Greta and me ------- Listen up y'all, I've got a story to tell About the world we live in and the problems we face Got a crisis on our hands, a fight to survive And I'm here to spread the word, gonna take it to the mic Climate change is real, the evidence is clear Temperatures are rising, the ice caps disappear We've got hurricanes, fires, droughts and floods Cos of the way we live our lives, treating Earth like mud But it's not too late, we've got a chance to make a change Reduce our carbon footprint, gotta interchange Electric cars driving, windmills thriving Solar panels shining, carbon levels diving Gotta plant more trees, clean up the sea Make the planet healthy, a place to be Gotta recycle, reusable bags Lower waste, reduce pollution, share our tags Got my pen and pad, writing for the cause Gonna spread the word, make the people pause The future of the earth, is in our hands Gonna take a stand, make change in the land I'm hustling the hustle, with a purpose in mind Gonna make a change, leave a legacy behind Turbines spinning, solar panels shining bright Reducing our footprint, making our Earth light So let's work together, let's make a stand For the future of our planet, for the good of man Let's reduce our waste, let's turn off the lights Let's make a change, for better for right Climate is a crisis, we gotta act fast Slash our emissions, clean energy at last Gonna save the Earth, gotta do it right Reduce waste, recast, turn off our lights at night So listen to my words, hear what I say It's time to take action, it's time to change today! ---------------------- Listen up brother, to this message we impart We gotta act now, be fast, be smart Climate change denial, it's just not right We've got to stand strong, and put up a fight Greta's voice is clear, like a beacon on high She's leading the charge, with a will that won't die The planet's in peril, this we can't deny It's time to come together, and give it a try The ice is melting, and the oceans are rising The fires are raging, and the storms are surprising But still some deny, and turn a blind eye It's time to open up, and give the truth a try We can't keep ignoring, what's right in front of us We've got to take action, and make a big fuss The planet is dying, and it's time we do our part To protect posterity, for our progeny So let's come together, and make a change We'll join forces, gotta rearrange The future we want, for the planet we love With Greta as our guide, sent from above She's shown us the way, and we'll follow her lead We'll leave a legacy, make the future we need Denial be gone, and let the truth be known We'll save the planet, and make enduring home. --------------- Denials can't hold us back, we'll break free We'll rise above, with our own clarity The future is ours, and we'll make it bright We won't lose sight, of what is right So come on and join us, let's make a stand For the planet and future, for a better land Climate change is real, and it's time we face It's time we take action, and leave no trace. --------------- Thanks ChatGPT From Greta, and me
