What to answer to a questioning child?
Fossils turned to fuel
fuel stoked fire
fire caused smoke
who's to blame?
some folks say
it's fossils
some bloke says
climate change is a hoax

they've a political agenda

asks a child
who has no school to go
because it's been turned to rubble
by hurricane Michael in Florida
