Another Hottie



Going t’ be another hottie today; - yeah, well, it is 
th’ time o’ year when temperatures break barriers 
in deference t’ eco-sense, or least what’s meant’s 
normality; but then, we’re somewhat in arrears, or 
putting it disrespectfully - bullshit bears onus less, 
and there’s th’ irony; where commonsense used t’ 
be tried and true we’re now tied t’ economies you 
may get remunerated by, or wear sagging deficits 

But we’ll best its trial-by-ordeal - it’s that little test 
encountered whenever rationality questions who’s 
idea it was t’ go this route; of course it wasn’t you, 
and lucidly me neither tho’ its a who’s-who-guess 
who else’s finger’s in th’ pie; and that is where the 
acid lies, laced with fabrications and compromise 

Which we’ll all wear into another season, & where 
the advent of higher heat & greater irregularity will 
suggest something’s amiss; but, there’ll be no bet 
as t’ who’s dissed as the guilty guy, or from which 
revelation we’ll expect ‘compensation’ for why we 
were duped in the first place - but meantime have 

T’ face another day where heat in excess of 42ºC 
is suggested th’ ‘norm’, - and followed by storms 
which’ll leave 150,000 homes without power as it 
happened yesterday; no way that’s ‘normalcy’ as 
we live & breathe, it’s that bloody climate change 
rite of passage our Leaders still continue to deny
