The Ice Age
The extreme cold is well established.
It sits like a chair in a pocket of the same.
Its simply up to you to observe.
A change in equilibrium already apparent.
Solar warming sets Earth core a flame.
Like a furnace expanding, breathing, smoking white ashes, the ice age.
.
Predictable outcome is time variable.
Earth opens wide. a heated divide. The ice age.
giant earthquakes, and powerful volcanic eruption..
The axis is i pointing, slipping, Earth bouncing, and skipping along.
Spurring great kingly tides.
An Antarctic breeze.. This ice age.
The water soon pools at its center, with Increasing momentum, causing this sloshing about.
As the chilling rushing winds continue, each new storm mounting there attack against the north.
Like a perpetual winter breeze crossing the equator.
