The forests need our love not our chainsaws

The chainsaws
create fire and brimstone
vile, and enormous sound
cutting through the
mature trees
who crash down to the
ground

dispatching our great
friends the
Red Ape, the Orangutan
and the myriad of other
creatures
who then are
forced to plan

another fast departure
from their home
within the tree
that’s coming down
that’s sobbing
this vile iniquity

wasted now before
our eyes,
destruction
at its worst
I cry myself to sleep
at night
believing
that we’re cursed

by morons
who see nothing
but the
dollars in their bank
such mindless individuals
whose thoughts
and breath is rank

Corporate brainwashing
has dulled their
tiny mind
and they cut
down the forests
in a frenzy
underlined

its evil and
its stupid
to cut down all
these trees
that safeguard
soil erosion
and their flowers
attract the Bee’s

all manner of sweet
creative lives
die up there
and 1o minutes
with a chainsaw
leads to such despair

hacking off the branches
ripping the whole heart
out of God’s own garden
the terrifying part
of seeing sterile areas
planted with oil palm
in corporate profiteering
causing so much harm

to every living creature
and, the whole Planet too
shooting themselves in the foot
that is what they do
the red ape needs
protection
its worth its weight
in gold
which is more
than can be said
for chainsaw
sods that hold

no sway, with humanity
for clearly what they do
is cause
great disappointment
and suffering
all through
we must now
stem this evil
This corporate embrace
they are
blood sucking vampires
destroying the forest place
