Listen


what becomes of Mother if the snow don’t fly
when warm and callous breezes fill the sky
what say you when the heat kills the flowers
is it all some mad scientist’s lie?
the whip of wild sand covers the trees
an ocean, if there is one, the blind man sees
a leader standing watching from steel towers
and the common man believes, if you please
do you have a name for this new world’s time?
is it the land, the people, who suffers sublime
do even aliens come along with their powers?
who has the words to fill hands of a mime
if we cannot hear and will not listen
our grandchildren’s hearts and eyes will glisten
