Rescuers in China are digging up miners
while refugees bob the Aegean sea.
Elninio windchimes, here's: The New Year's
Old News Bulletin. From southern ice
cruising to a warming North Pole
we have a spot of unseasonable weather.
Slightly inclement poetry should be
noting the internal rhymes of amber
whiskey clinking a thick glass, silver
to gold draped over the evergreen smell of pine,
reminiscence nostalgia of human-kind
cosying the starkness, not nature’s best-buds, geese
and daisy daisy deer nibbling at a new fast food joint,
munching on unseasonal bouquets, missing flights,
missing in extreme weather events
until radio waves are seasick ill
with statistics on seasonal roadkill.
In the morning, the radio soberly maps how many
by the length of a roll-call foghorn. Bugle volunteers
can’t dish out kindness quickly enough.
Diplomacy’s PA makes conference callsto organise a conference call to call
for a conference shortly before the North Pole
measured a few degrees above zero – where were
you in the floods?
Paris had an election and citizens
leapt the learning curve of the earth’s tilt
through uphill struggling steps, bloody tantrumsto the straight levelheaded path ahead.
Were you #
there? Was that canned laughter added afterthe already standing ovation Trumpeted across the Nation?
Alternative facts on media stations. Outpost agencies wracked up
sales per inch. Pinch Pinch. Wake up.
Pinch Punch first day of the month
of dirty dancing and stepford wives
deal and no deal gameshow rodeos.
Down will be up along Route 45.
Up will be down along the Boulevards and Promenades
along avenues and high street tweets, the drums
the marching, the solidarities, the liars.
News agencies are touting for your cognitive bias. Obscene.
Join the discussion, be a hero on apps more addictive than heroine.
Misinformation of the Nation, head bowed to a screen.

A pretty fair assessment of the not so pretty state of things. Nothing written here has improved, has it. I enjoyed the sardonic wit in parts of this too. Good poem.
