Until further notice

it’s 3:25 in the morning
and I’m awake
because my great great grandchildren
won’t let me sleep
my great great grandchildren
ask me in dreams
what did you do while the planet was plundered?
what did you do when the earth was unraveling?
surely you did something
when the seasons started failing?
as the mammals, reptiles, birds were all dying?
did you fill the streets with protest
when democracy was stolen?
what did you do
once
you
knew?…

While looking for non copyrighted pictures of Greenland on Google for my previous post (“Sven”) I came across alarming news coverage on the unprecedented level of ice currently melting in Greenland.

How can I sit here writing fictitious stories about pencil sharpening competitions when this is happening?

As such, I am discontinuing this blog until further notice and getting involved with Extinction Rebellion.
