Glacial Melt

V1: Down by the Labrador
Icebergs, 10,000-year-old glacial giants
Snow white to deep aquamarine
Floating down the current to the warm gulf stream

Icebergs are edges of glaciers
Broken off and slipped into the ocean
90% below the surface of the sea
As deep and as hidden as a secret me

V2: Down by the Labrador
Icebergs, frozen giants, compressed snow and water
Crevasses a deep blue
and volcanic eruptions encased in ice cold.

Ocean currents hold me, waves forever blow me
As long as I am deep blue
Try to stop explosions, wind forever blowing
Ocean currents growing too.

V3: Far from the Labrador
Icebergs run aground and begin to start melting
Growlers by the shore
The water that is melting innocent and pure

I feel the force of currents,
my inner momentum
Ice bergs are unstable
but that’s not my story

Melting ice is stronger
Melting ice no longer
I become the ocean
By a warm gulf stream.

Automatic Karma Situation

I've Got This Island To Myself

Explain a green world to a child
who has never played in the grass
Explain how it sounds to hear a bird sing
That flies through the sky in the wild
Explain the sound of a babbling brook
With sweet wind as it blows through the trees
Lay in the grass and watch the clouds pass
Feeling happy, so lazy and free.

My grandchildren cried when I said, "Go outside,"
as they clutched their phones in their hands
Playing meant games, addicted to screens
Play outside? I don't understand
Their memories of childhood, how will they explain
When playing outside was remembered as pain
I'm glad I'll be gone. I won't have to know
What the world was like when the food wouldn't grow

So many are waiting for somebody else
To wake up and fix the mess that was made
Who cares if the children are hungry and poor
You had to give birth since clinics locked doors
Who cares if the storms, the fires and drought
Destroyed their homes and made them afraid
The rich need more money, corporations say,
"Climate change is here to stay."

The wars, the bombs, refugees fleeing
Leaving their family by the side of the road
Thank God it isn't us, we say
Fox News tells us every night and day
We think we are safe if truth be told
God will save the religious right
Leave all others out in the cold
Stupidity has the largest price to pay

When the bees are gone and the birds stop singing
When the oceans are dead, only trash on the beach
We sucked out the life the world had to give
Only corpses of the dead now beneath our reach
We struggle to breathe, no healthcare for all
No backyards to play in, fading stars in the sky
Teach the children about green grass
Dreams to all. Goodnight

There’s Tony in his leather jacket
in the corner of the room.
Nursing a half empty glass,
one half full of doom.
Cheer up Tony, you know it’s only 4 in the afternoon - no need for gloom.

There’s Tony in his leather jacket
with his back against the wall
listen to his head-racket,
wondering ‘bout it all
but cheer up Tony, it’s not so lonely when you play ball - don’t fall away

but the beer is flat - the lads are loud,
one’s company, two’s a crowd,
he doesn’t like it when it’s rowdy - wants to have his say.

There’s Tony in his leather jacket,
the hours are getting on.
Thinking he might pack it in,
time that he was gone
but come on Tony, take it slowly and have some fun…

Find yourself a karaoke song
put some money in the jukebox - sing along.
Have a game of darts or play some pool
tell a few jokes - play someone’s fool.
Pretend you’re younger and you’re free,
try a few lines see if you can be
the life and soul.

There’s Tony in his leather jacket in the corner of the room.
Where’s Tony in his leather jacket - in the corner of the room.
Where’s Tony’s leather jacket? - in the corner of the room.
Where’s Tony?

There’s Tony in his leather jacket in the corner of the room.
Tony’s in his leather jacket in the corner of the room.
There’s Tony in his leather jacket in the corner of the room.
Tony’s in his leather jacket!
