El Nino

As one, wet merchants turn their eyes towards the west. 
Trade winds falter as if in dire consequence. 
Freezing fish to fry, fail to materialise. 
Christ-child, blood-warm current sends to touch the skies. 

El nino. 

Bathing in uncertainty, another age 
seems to wing from T.V. screens in weather rage. 
Savage retribution makes for a headline feats. 
Planet-warming, opinion-forming headless beast. 

El nino. 

Cold [bad word] tongue extends its dark and watery touch. 
Forces gather, martial stand against [bad word]  
Wily child in mischief here to make his play. 
Leaves toys for little sister on another day 

El nino.
