Written by David Flynn   

Christ its Scotland! Where's that global warming?

Perma-gloom evicted from Glencoe - the sun is burning.

Your ancestors grimly warn from restless grave -

'It'll never last; it will all degrade to misery.'

Chronic enduring Calvinistic-Caledonian work ethic;

reality wakes the life we dream as trivial kindness weakens blackness.

Abandon cause, embrace strangeness that makes us human.

Cell regeneration will save us, science to serve us

and our place in the scheme is safe.

We are not nervous.

For those who follow we bequeath our legacy.

Answers are beyond measurable "kent" physics

with systems fixed and ancient.

Cherished beliefs are loathe to conversion,

any dissent is heresy.
