"Climate Change Hastens Advances" another today's poem (satire trigger alerts)

Climate Change Hastens Advances

 

Cooperative militarizing of the arctic

is succeeding and proceeding apace -

brilliant human triumphs bloom there

 

Strategic landmasses for launching troops

universally to the Northern hemisphere

are a panacea of peace and security for all

 

Thawing of previously barren, icy lands -

a surprising windfall of convenient prospects

will manufacture positive versions of events

 

Peace missions and projectiles will be aimed

to enjoy shorter quicker courses and replies

when any hint of things going awry is suspected

 

Artic bases are ideal for quelling dissent

among ever-troublesome populaces

who keep eyes upon pasts not futures

 

Our leaders will now be able to wallow

and bask like fierce beasts in arctic sun

sure in their knowledge of global controls

 

As we replace with intense mobilized hope

the former weak-kneed namby-pamby ism                            

Our putsch of total combative desire will climax

 

in a diasporic aura of good feelings and warmth

like a woman relaxing and enjoying herself

and a man in pleasure before girding for battle

 

if each of us hews to its proper rung of the hierarchy

it will conduct us into a winning new world where

endless battles create endless spasms of delight
