I do not know if you will win the contest, but I will tell you this is powerful and truthful both in words and image. Many deny climate change even with the heat, floods, and fires this year.
Best wishes,
Mary

Much too true. How about a ban on making any more gasoline-running cars? How about wind farms on land where nothing can grow? I am happy that we still have intelligent people here. Keep writing on these important things.

    yeah, there are solutions. It is not primarily a technical problem but a political will problem and too many vested interests who don't want to give up their power in order to save the world from destruction.

    There is a nit wit born every minute. When you get a minute read my first poem "Remittance". Tell me what you think Karen

I dislike what is happening in our country, author, for as long as we drive our cars and tilt our soil, we kill our earth. Drill baby drill, suck up that juicy treat, break that rock, and get that morsel of oil. I wish that back then they had stuck with the water engine. Thank you for sharing.

As far as I can see your first line has only four syllables in it rather than the required five. This is a shame as this is a great idea for a five-seven-five poem. Perhaps you can change it before the contest cut-off date. Perhaps 'The world burning up' or 'World is burning up' would do.
