Cry of the Innocent
On blankets of snow
Carcasses of my siblings lay.
I watch you now
Walk away.
Moments ago,
Your greedy eyes, knives,
Merciless shadow
Had snatched their lives.
As you merry about
The cozy fur and trophy heads
I prepare to ready the shroud
Tears piling around in hundreds.
Justice waits for you…
Justice of nature…
A world dry of animals, foliage, and hue–
Nature’s punishment for our blunder.
