Nature’s puzzle

                                                 The skeleton languishing on the road
                                                    With sunken eyes, devoid of hope
                                                    Watching the pounding Mercedes
                                                        Asking himself who are they?
                                                                  Strange animals
                                                           Wrapped in human hide

                                                              The cruel creatures
                                                            In the name of justice
                                                        development and progress 
                                                           Swallowed the share of 
                                                        Innocent, plain and simple 
                                                            Mocking the morality 

                                                              The answer comes
                                                      They are advanced specimens 
                                                         Grown in millions of years 
                                                          Redefining the evolution 
                                                         Reflecting nature’s puzzle
                                                               Baffling the reason
