Doomer Craziness

People will think you’ve gone fey
When you start saying what doomers say;
They’ll see you as mad,
Which isn’t so bad
If you’ve always been sort of that way.

LATOC

LATOC was an old time saloon:
Flying bottles, piano out of tune;
Overall raucous,
A grand motley caucus
Of genius and dumbass maroon.

Fukushima

If people knew more about nukes,
They wouldn’t think doomers are kooks;
They might change their mind
When they see they’re entwined
In a future with 400 Fukes.

Why Bother?

Why bother to sound the alarm
When nothing will save us from harm?
Do the math, you’ll conclude
That we’re totally screwed:
It’s over; we’ve all bought the farm.

Dietary Suggestion

We’ve run out our species’ life span
Plus many more other than man,
So if there is meat
That you still like to eat,
It’s time now to eat all you can.

The Luxurious Life

I ought to be burning with shame,
But I don’t want to give up my claim
To the fabulous ride
Fossil fuels provide—
And most people feel just the same.

Sure as Shootin’

As sure as the oil has plateaued,
As sure as we’re bound for The Road,
As sure as the ending
We know is impending,
The nuclear plants will explode.
