An entire public career of denying the existence of Climate Change, finally catches up with former Florida Governor and present US Senator Rick Scott, in the unforgiving form of Hurricane Milton.

Think of the vilest villains

Who have disfigured the faces

Of nightmarish graphic novels, movie screens,

Or other such rot.  Than, think of Rick Scott.

If Lex Luthor & Voldemort

Mixed their twisted sperm into a test-tube,

And steamed it in a fetid Florida swamp for

Many months or years, or what,

The end result would be…Rick Scott.

His glowing orb, fresh from the Dark Lagoon,

Sucked life from ailing humans far too soon,

Hissing his seductive tune of health care savings each day,

Killing them harshly, through Columbia HCA.

A mere warm-up for the spawn of Voldemort & Lex,

His deprivation of care, sheer insanity.

How easily Scott shilled his heinous hex,

Manipulating it, Mengele-like, against humanity.

Crazed Eyes, ablaze with dollar signs,

Gleefully pulling the plug on yours and mine.

Then, foraging for more to defraud, or scare,

Scott’s ghoulish-gaze grabbed Medicare.

With Frankensteinian flare,

He raped and pillaged taxpayers bare.

His scandalous fraud hit the multi-billion $$ scale,

So Scott “5th” away the truth 75 times, cheating jail.

Fueled by money from Big Oil & Gas,

And his own crooked, thieving past,

Scott sucked up Fossil Fuel funds,

While the Gulf overheated, very fast.

The soul-less son of Slytherin,

Slimed the idea of “Climate Change;”

Wiping it out of State Regs, and

Erasing it from students’ brains.

Slithering into his Naples Mansion,

Giving Floridians a middle-fingered jilten’,

Scott gets spit-out, dervish-like, from the boiling Gulf,

Stripped bare by the wrath of his creation, Hurricane Milton.

From Tampa Bay to Key West,

Scott’s Climate Change denials roared on shore,

His pathological scientific whitewash,

Was now a killer storm–Category 5 or 4.

Scott force-fed the State a pipeline—

One of 3 from which he sucked out cash;

Addicting Florida, fentanyl-like, to Fossil fuels,

Setting it up for a crippling, tidal surge crash.

“I’m not a scientist,” Scott once bragged,

 Such willful blindness leaving Floridians sandbagged.

 Now, he tells CNN  “something’s clearly changing,”

As the waters his actions heated, wipes out people, raging…

Slithering Scott, flailing hard for votes;

Trying to rewrite his record of malfeasance,

Which wiped out lives, houses and boats.

Stripped naked before you,

Scott washes ashore;

His craven career of excuses drowned out,

By Milton’s deafening, deadly roar.
