the Okapi wild and beautiful
Magical I’d say
30000 left it does appear
upon this day
a wild reserve in DRC
the Congo holds so much
Silver Backs and Okapi
so many out of touch
with reality thats natural
where mining is their thing
carving up the natural world
for their little piece of bling
gold miners the consortiums
rough necks
not much between
their ears alas
destruction
the attitude is mean
the vibrancy and tears
the cries of sawn down ancient timbers
the fungal web of life
grove after grove
the treasure trove
treated to such strife
the enigmatic angel forms
roaming as they do
harming no one
living life
its puzzling but true
silent beings
tendering
their peace for those who dare
to see God’s plan and live by it
Mindfully aware.
