Poisons and Venoms
On our globe of life
Animal and plant
Protection for them
To us they grant
Venom's and poisons
To defend and deter
Whether scaled
Leafed or fur
Reactions can be
Ultimate and pain
As each delivers
To protect their name
The slow loris
Amazes us all
Poison and venom
In something so small
Bee's, nettles
Stingrays tail
Deterrents to us
Only humans assail
Incredible weapons
Gifted to them
Imagine if they
Were in the hands of men
Would we use them
For the human race
Or against each other
Once again lose face
On the leaf of the nettle
And the body of the bee
To the tail on the stingray
Is where they'll always be
