Poem Ernie Hasler

Global warming is now affecting every part of the oceans, surface, and atmosphere of our planet. We are experiencing catastrophic weather events ranging from wildfires; increasingly severe storms, flooding, droughts; rising sea levels; reduced clean water; extinction of species; loss of pollinating insects; reduced ocean life; loss of agricultural productivity; reduced fishing yields; population conflicts; and large movements of refugees. Within the lines of a continuing prophetic poem, Hasler reflects on current environmental concerns through biblical warnings extracted from the Book of Revelation. While relying on the seven trumpets to organize his reflections, Hasler explores all the reasons why our environment and its inhabitants are suffering such as the plastics that are invading our oceans, the scarcity of fresh water, and the dangers of pesticides. Included is his prose commentary that focuses on the creation of Jesus Christ (Hesus Krishna) as a man-god in the tradition of Roman state religion while encouraging others to recognize the true Messiah. Poem: Volume Two continues a visionary verse that utilizes biblical warnings to bring awareness to global warming and its devastating effects on our beautiful planet.
