Really enjoyed
The Tin Man's lament Musty. So sad, but no doubt they are together in their dreams.
Hope.
The young are among us all lively and quick.
Big choices like Facebook or Twitter to pick
and in place of for Christmas a new pair of socks
is a new three sixty PSX box.
Their future is coming. I hear the sobs.
When all they really wanted was jobs,
instead they get left overs of our greed
and rhymes on how our hearts bleed.
What ever they make the Chinese make cheaper.
Prices and taxes grow steeper and steeper,
then suddenly all back to manual toil.
The engines stop. Run out of oil.
From incredible growth to massive decline.
All in one short life time.
And when they're as old as I'm feeling right now,
will they look back and see - just how
it could have been a different photo
if we hadn't scrapped Kyoto?
So; sorry then, about the planet.
We sure was a greedy gannet.
But all isn't lost at all, maybe
there's life on Kepler 22-b.
