NATURE SPEAKS
i am made different
i am raised up strong
like the march of army ants
i have been through time
on knees,as unto the steady rise
of the morning light
through the thick undergrowth
Then i was established
my habitat was made
among the others as me
but perfect like unto none other
Among the many that are with i
was i placed with my inhabitants
then like a shade ,my difference
from them was kept away
I thought them but they never learned
i gave to them ,they had
but didn't own
what they learned and owned
they did to their doom
what they didn't have was my traits
that they thought of me as weakness
the little ,small and simple things they dislike
but with those am made different
my thoughts are never considered
the many procedures replaced.
The so called powers that remain
everything changed from ordinary
complexities abound
my nature unrecognized
my strengths do not exist
i will be left cold and distressed
but not desolate and weak
with all that i give ,they are not content
they couldn't profit
My poles melt away
my balances has got to his wits
my rivers dry out ,my banks overflow with salt and stench
my bowels hurt for my children fight one another
my inhabitants have no peace
because they lack understanding
Now in anger and shame i cry
i sit by myself and watch
in discontentment,the demise
and gradual destruction of mankind
and the difference in me
