Tyre Totem


Tyre Totem 




The tide has gone out in Aberaeron again but this time it's staying out on strike.
Everyone will have to start riding a bike and I mean everyone.
Even Elizabeth and Phillip at their advanced age will need a trike and stabilisers.
Because despite scrappage schemes and incentives the diesel and petrol fumes from cars are destroying the fragile eco system of this planet.
Henry Ford saw a profit.
Doesn't matter what Volkswagen do from gassing monkeys to lying about ignition keys their reputation remains intact with those who need to get from A- B.
Where did this obsession with the auto mobile come from?
The Cave Man didn't use one to kill his Mammoth so why does modern man drive ones the size of the hairy beasts with tusks. From Qashqai to squashed guy.
Some of these monstrosities on the roads would not be out of place in a Mad Max Film or Post Brexit Britain!
I don't even know who the Minister for the Environment is.
In Red White and Blue, what does it mean to you?
Where is the Green?
Where is the Green?
Where is the Green?
So old tyres litter the quayside now because we've all gone back to the Penny Farthing and the Go Kart.
Tourists arrive in South Beach on foot because has it ever crossed your mind that everything is just too damned easy in the 'so called' developed world.
Roll up in your car to Aldi and Lidl and fill your boot with £100 worth of piddle.
I'm not lecturing, I'm hectoring.
I've had my moments, but am now a proponent of NOT buying New Cars just to keep someone in a job because there will be no jobs on a dead planet.
