Blissful ignorance


Out here in the freezing cold

In a place known for being hot

I wonder why the weather’s so cranky

Monsoon showers in December



I wonder why man is so stupid

Unmindful of nature’s warning signs

Going about his work uncaring

About seasons changing and upturning



I sense an uneasy calm

Nature working up its anger

We’ll just stand by and watch



Helpless…puny weaklings

Civilizations have vanished

Cities have perished

It’s just the way it’s always been



A full circle.

Nature’s ways
