Strange Bedfellows

poem by: Daniel Moskowitz
Written on Dec 09, 2018

Most recently,
The "Right Wing" President of the United States,
Donald Trump,
Has claimed solidarity with the "Yellow-Vest Movement" in France,
Many of whom identify themselves
As "Left Wingers".
Trump says that these protests
Against French President, Emmanuel Macron,
Show that the Paris Climate Change Accord
Has been a failure.
What does it mean when the Right embraces the Left?
Are Fascists now Communists, 
And Communists now Fascists?
What it means is that the Fossil-Fuel Industry,
For which President Donald Trump is a pawn
Will do ANYTHING to hold on to their profits....
ANYTHING not to deal 
With the massive amount of evidence
That human activity
Is dramatically warming the Earth's Climate.
Sure, 
Jared Kushner,
A "Jew"
And Prince Mohammad Bin Salman
A "Muslim"
Are still best buddies
Even though riots and massacres
Happen on Gaza 
Between Israelis and Palestinians every week.
Why?
Because these Elites are both profiting from the Fossil Fuel Economy
And the Defense Contractors 
That it supports.
One might ask how,
If the Petro-Oligarchs, worldwide,
Can ban together,
What forces keep the masses of people
Who are being detrimentally impacted by Climate Change
Apart?
