flat liner deniers
the graph flatlines
for not one more concerned in mind
is added to the warming warning
the seas boil
yet not one irate mind
not one scream
is added to the welter
the spectators watch
adverts are consumed
time is consumed
not for one but for all
time is of the essence lost
not one finger is raised
not one frown is traced
to oblivion at thought’s edge
they are burying the graphs
inverting them into smiles
simple similes do not hold water
that is turned to steam
some scream still stop yet still
not one sorry lily lies
upon the coffin of our times
