It all adds up.

sonnet in tetrameter

It all adds up.

 

Contrails are scribbling on the sky.

A product of technology.

Left behind when planes fly by.

A modern form of graffiti.

Although they seem less permanent

 than spray cans which street artists use.

I believe it’s relevant.

They will eventually diffuse

 and mingle in the upper air.

Adding their pollution to

 green house gas already there

There only adding something new.

Nobody worries why should I

about graffiti in the sky.
