To calculate the quotient of
Unnecessary pain
One multiplies
Stay in the loop
Never miss the news and analysis you care about.
Unnecessary poetry by crime,
Divides by one one-hundredth a percent
And takes this figure to the power of
The Forbes 500 squared
But for the numerator to be pared
To nil
We need do nothing more than wait
While hydrocarbons and the rising seas
By not-so-fractional degrees
Eliminate
All human misery
For good
