the sun causes cancer
the sun causes cancer
but the idiots outside keep smiling into it
only the polar bears have not yet learned to swim
the sun causes cancer
the flood waters keep rising
but that bitch on 4th avenue
won’t get off of her phone
she’s standing the middle of the sidewalk
letting the sun beat on her head
as she squawks about nothing
she doesn’t care that sun causes cancer
that the flowers are blooming too early
she is erosion
she is the essence of mankind
as droughts suck at the coughing dirt
one half of this world is an incurable allergen
the other half always gets it wrong
yet the people eat lunch outside in the parks
they cook themselves in scented oils
letting the sun give them cancer
someone needs to contact the president about this
have him call the u.n.
tell everyone to go back inside
pull down the shades and lock their doors
tell everyone to stop huffing ozone
get with the program
but politicians practice the religion of denial
and the sun causes cancer
as our ecology and determination seem to wane
and the dream fades from crystal to black.
