"Global warNing"

I buy 3 and sell 5
Make more money, live right
In the process I save trees
Or so I am told at-least.

If the wind is blowing west
I can put my strategy to test,
Watch the prices do tricks today
And wager the dewdrops in May.

No grazing cattle in the farms
No falling snow in my arms,
De-value the abundant, value the rare
Humans vs the polar bear.

I set my mind to work the books
But ignore the ever innocent looks,
Profit, governments, policies to sustain
People say they're not all in vain.

Walking in the Sunday mall
Built over the equatorial forest's fall,
I sense the mercury rise as hate
In degrees Centigrade.

Just then a man runs to me making a din
Says his lungs are filled with emission,
I must have sold him credits spare
This is the part when I show I care.

I look apologetic, say I'm sorry
Next time I'll do him a Buy-2-get-1-free,
Saved for now, back to the game
Of care, concern & speeches of fame.

Its vast, its political, its free-range
I work with climate change,
Want some pollution by the bay?
Its selling free today.

This is GOOD. I don't know why I never checked your blog before. Just didn't know.
But this is good.
