This is a rewrite of, "Jet streams", a poem I published here on Poeter.se the 2nd of April, 2015. There is also a sound-file that comes with the poem; I am the one who reads. "Jet lags", is a poetical image for climate disturbances.


Jet streams, and Jet lags.

With steps and turns so refined, they grant the air
exquisite flair; then spin the Globe within a thread,
entwined, into a single stance, inclined, to weave
each breath into their glimmering coat.

As night gives way to day and breeze my lids,
the dancers of the air will trim the angle of
the Earth, then clear the seal for sun and moon
to finely tune the brim. Jet lags, of a magnitude
unknown, might be the price for flights that do
not pay them, due respect.

------------------------------------

The Jet winds are four winds that continually
ciculate around the Earth, two on the Northern
hemisphere, and two on the Southern hemisphere.
They are essential for the preservation of a stable
climate-system.

According to many climate-scientists though, for the
last 15 years, especially the jet stream closest to
the Artic, "the Polar Jet stream", has, due to global
warming, begun to show some quite serious
irregularities , adding to the frequency and
severness of droughts and winters, etc.
