The vicious cycle

America freezes and Australia sweats.

With weather becoming more chaotic than erratic

The consequences of climate change

Appears to be getting worse

This, ironically, further reinforces the causes

With soaring energy demands

Required to adapt with weather extremities.

While mankind may have genuine reasons

To be narcissistic about the success of its development models,

Yet, there is a possibility that it may be blamed

For not only threatening its own survival

But also of fellow living beings for none of their faults.
