Human Reign

by Beautiful Chaos   Jun 7, 2007


Where have all the forests gone?
Hope is losing, eyes are drawn,
Fierce within their own domain,
Dying under human reign.

Nature is a fleeting thought,
Unaware until we're caught,
Killing just because we can,
We are God, the land of man.

Tigers, lions, we don't care,
What's it worth, skin 'em bare,
There's a zoo just up the road,
We've given back, life's bestowed.

Would we like our little cage,
If others came on waves of rage?
Would we see where we went wrong,
Or sing the same old stupid song?

    Carrie,
    This is such a stunning write. So many times the world looks over what is going on and chooses to live life through rose colored glasses. You have brought to light the actions of man and flipped it back on them. This is sad as it happens every day all day and it is overlooked.

    Your feelings of despair of what is happening in this world are felt are made known by this write. Until we wake up we’ll probably still sing the same old stupid song. May our heart be filled with peace and joy each and everyday.
