Desperately Denying – a poem

Desperately Denying

Carbon Dioxide on the rise
Temperatures through the roof.
Extreme weather patterns
Become the new truth,
While deniers demand proof.

Low lands and cities are under flood
As heatwaves threaten life.
Droughts destroy the crops
As mass migration creates strife,
People struggle for their life.

Forest’s die as the climates change
Animals desperately seek other range.
Humans fight to rearrange
As the world becomes increasingly strange.
