A woman in a fancy shirt stands arms
crossed hostile to the spewing of climate
change deniers whose word and action harms
the environment. Each one a client
of the Fox News media octopus,
not giving a damn about what happens
to our kids. Cause floods for the platypus
and beaver. Dressed in the fancy trappings
of false science pretending to be fair
and balanced. A woman and her small child
cling to the roof of their flooded car, hair
drenched in flood water, the rivers are wild
from the endless rain of a hurricane,
humans have no one else but us to blame.
"Le Femme Savant" by Kenneth Larot Yamat
