EVE OF EXTINCTION*
All life on earth threatened by nuclear war and greenhouse gas emissions
Over 300 were killed in climate change-induced flooding today 1
And you don't believe we're on the eve of extinction
Mother Earth assaulted by oil, coal and gas extraction
I saw a dead gray whale washed up on a Malibu beach yesterday
All life on earth threatened by nuclear war and greenhouse gas emissions
In Mother Earth’s sacred womb they’ve exploded nuclear hellfire damnation
They dropped a bunker buster bomb on Tehran the other day
And you don't believe we're on the eve of extinction
Thousands of Gaza innocents killed by bombing, gunfire and forced starvation
Anti-genocide protestors shout, “How many kids did you kill today?
All life on earth threatened by nuclear war and greenhouse gas emissions
Corporate media sees no link between wildfires and climate destabilization
From data evidence of climate scientists they want you to look away
They don’t want you to believe we're on the eve of extinction
Without fossil fuels phaseout, we can’t stop Anthropogenic Climate Disruption
“Abolish nuclear weapons…Clock’s 90 seconds to midnight,” prophets say
All life on earth threatened by nuclear war and greenhouse gas emissions
And you don't believe we're on the eve of extinction?

They Say Opposites Attract
Scientists say two particles can stay connected,
no matter how far apart they are
When one changes, the other responds instantly,
even across the universe
I am 92
My significant quantum entangled
other is 29
I tell her in winter,
“Love you to Andromeda and back”
In the morning, I like to walk
around the block in hiking boots
At night she likes to dance
the Marinara in spiked heels
Even across the universe
She listens to rock
around the clock
While around midnight,
I listen to Thelonious Monk
Even across the universe
“Love you to the Milky Way
and back, she answers in spring,
We are a billion light years apart
But there’s nothing that can ever sever
tie to my quantum entangled baby
