I riff flecked about thee august
     Autumn Equinox 2018,
     this polymath learned why,
September Equinox
     will be at 9:54 PM,
     which spoiler alert thy
learned (courtesy Google),
     when Or Sun Wells

     crosses celestial equator
     i.e. (imaginary line in sky
above Earth's Equator
     from north to south), a quiet rye
hit moment occurs
     Saturday September 22nd, 2018
     (at 9:54 PM Eastern
     Time) marks onset

     of apple cider
     and pumpkin pie
a distinct golden jacketed
     matted palette well nigh
paints arboreal swath, sans
     quiet riot of brilliant
     color, that doth belie
rampant terrestrial, unreal,

     and venal degradation aye
temporarily turning a (third)
     blind eye apathetically, blithely,
     and conveniently shunting aside
eyesore fissured **** - wide
cleft wound, where hide
ding away from
     global abuse decried

as feeble effort
     ignoring doth decide
fate i.e. as does wrecking,
     where precious resources espied
snubbing, and thumbing nose
     (figuratively) asper dead
     serious portentous desperate
     (falling on deaf ears) plea chide

dismissively mocking (bird
     den some) prophesying,
     whence creator cried
alarming, blaring, and clanging
     sounding Doomsday Clock,
     where ambivalence unheeded
     scathing tragic miss guide
did exploitative testament,

     where survival of fittest tried
to the max, viz (courtesy
     of **** sapiens)
     as Mother Nature dost allied
flora and fauna espied
     comprising vibrant biosphere
     each betrothed nsync, and guide
ding generic hominids shrugging

     (Atlas sized fountain head)
     off beholden hide
bound wedded bliss
     to the other,
     this observer awestruck,
     sans whirled, wide webbed biota
     adorns terra firmae analogous,
     qua expectant wedded bride

named Gaia – resplendent
     raiment adorned playfully chide,
when (dark and Stormy Dan
yells) Armageddon
     legatee - time ran
out for **** sapiens meaning...

     salvation to late for human
knit tee, cuz field day, sans
     grim reaper will
     glory in field day
whar cross bones
     numb skull pay fealty.
