Why are we saving for retirement? – a poem about climate collapse

Why are we saving for retirement

When the world is about to end?

Do we think it won’t?

Do we think we will escape it?

“Contribute to your 401k”

“Pay off your mortgage”

These things aren’t happening for us.

Not when

Everything is dying

Not when

You are killing it
