Blue Sun

6/12/2007

Since I don't have the studio set up to paint, it has been a time of writing lately. I have been very concerned about global warming and climate change lately. Feel we are sitting on a time bomb and people aren't trying to look at it yet. Beyond frustrating, we only have one bubble of air to breathe and we are filling it with CO2.

"1990-2007: My Adulthood"

Dealing with real issues...
Remembered how in 1994,
Before AIDS had the cocktail,
WE didn't know if everyone was
Going to die in 10 years,
From that or the urban violence,
The Crack, The L.A. Riots,
Luckily, we didn't,
But I wonder if the movie, " Children of Men"
Was right at saying, "WE were dead a long time ago."
Because were not taking the precautions,
To stop Chrystal Meth, another Katrina,
Terrorism, Fascism, and Iraq,
To create and sustain our future,

Now we have 8 years until 2016,
When 1/2 of NYC will be underwater from
The north pole, melting;
Then maybe we'll see that there is a
Problem;
But the funny thing is with my generation,
That is all we've been raised with,
Handed down to U.S. to fix,
Problems...
