Oil has surely peaked!
The party is now over.
Ready for some pain?

We are consumers
Too mindless to know it was
Unsustainable.

"Happy motoring,"
A lifestyle with no future,
Was a road to hell.

What is our response?
Mainly we will kill for oil.
We call this moral.

Dragon in fall forest
Together they lie -
Black fire.

Cold steel
On hot breath -
I ride the dragon.

Warm Earth vomits
The black blood –
Apes fly.

Scorching sun's rays
The Earth parched of blood -
An abyss.

A chill autumn breeze
As the dragon tires -
Vertigo.

Ice meets fire
The Earth roars -
A new beginning.

one two three and four
let's get just a little more
we'll keep on driving

five six seven eight
drive right past depletion's gate
cruise on the highway

nine ten 'leven twelve
protocols can go to hell
cuz we deserve it

cars in ev'ry lane
polar bears can eat our pain
the world imploding

Not bad, wish I could do this kind of stuff

A Bomb kisses clouds.
Your death lurks yet ye men joke.
Gigantic die off.

Raphael smokes bud
Can't write haiku worth a damn
Not worth listening

[Plantagenet]

Oh shit. Look at that....
It's over three bucks for gas.
Damn oil companies!

America needs
a President who can spell
Gynecomastia.

don't know what makes a poem "haiku", but still:

Way Out

I'm not blinded by eternal growth
neither by doom and gloom.
We must not seek salvation in technology,
the root problem is our lyfestyle.
Most think oil and modern pleasures
are happyness and comfort.
Little they realize the joys of
breathing clean air and meditating.
Little they realize that fighting
to continue overconsumption
is a downward death spiral.
No one wins in a war.
Even if violent chaos come
I will feel safe.
No one can take away my
current serene mind.
Little they know,
that killing me will not
make me unhappy.
Little they know,
the true pleasures of life.
some say technology is a miracle,
but it's a cursed double-edged sword.
Little they know,
that life itself is the miracle.
There's a Way Out,
maybe not for humans;
but at least for life...
and for those few
truly awakened humans.

Oil peaked recently
Now we hunker down and wait
Winter is coming

[SchroedingersCat]

The Earth gives its blood
so we can drive to the mall
and eat its babies.
