Stormy Weather

Major storms at midnight they said,

so, with some trepidation we all went to bed.

But the world was clear and calm when we got up today,

perhaps the killer storms all blew away?

Perhaps, the weather hasn’t become 

a part of the news cycle as we cynically thought?

Perhaps, the weather by Rupert Murdoch hasn’t been bought.

Thunder storm asthma, flash floods, fire, rain

all good stuff to sell the news for the nightly campaign.

But seemingly never a part of a coordinated plan

to inform the public that climate change is well and truly at hand.
