Global Warming
[Nights of Violence!]

Spectral clouds clashing
licked by liquid-fire tongues,
Thunder shakes the moon
above the withering hills,
teasing ‘heat-demon’ laughter!

You know, Bruce, sometimes you render me speechless.  This is one of those times -- magnificant work.

I truly am in awe.

Whew, this work of art is definately on fire with the message man.

Liquid-Fire Tongues is probably my favorate little chunk of the poem.


A great read, as always.
Cheers.
