Those that trust the
Machines that look for
Patterns and make
Predictions
Forecast snow later today.
Those who use the
Statistics stored in the
Records to point the
Finger of blame
Say it’s all my fault:
That I travelled too far
On holidays;
Kept my family too warm,
Bought food out of season –
Because it was available:
All wrong!
Those who trawl the
Programs, pretending to
make sense of data are
Forecasting blizzards
This evening.
What do they want
Us to do?
Panic?
There’s nothing wrong –
And many things right –
About snow
As far as I’m concerned
We all have
Something we can learn:
If we dare …
If we care …
Beware!
