Rumex acetosella Bergsyra i december, i mars, i april och i juli

The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency tells us
something strange is happening to the weather:
using ad pillar space
to raise public awareness
about climate change
hothouse effect
Kyoto Protocol
and connections
to household energy consumption


strange to see this information
launched in commodified visual space
as any other clamouring competitor for our minds eyes

And while I spend the evening at the computer,
weed page making, three of the Star Houses
in the S-weed Domain have a five-hour blackout
due to a shortcircuited cable.
I never noticed - it was in my morning paper
