for as far as the eye can see
I see
rainforests torn down
and bleeding
terribly painfully
years of growth and memory
of fungal pathways lost
insects animals reptiles
this has been the cost
Indigenous peoples culture
wisdom through and through
lost to heaven by the hellish creed
palm oil its then view
taken from outer world displays
a dark violent expanse
all of godly creatures lost
The forest elephants
the arborial apes
and millions more
and all the medicine trees
so as to replace pure heaven on earth
with Palm oil if you wheeze
bring on the child labour
slavery again
change the face of the purest world
and replace all that with pain
With ignorance and ugliness
and rats and snakes and vile
palm oil dark and ugly
and pesticides and toil
This oil extends shelf life
it drives corporate profits higher
child labour is a policy
its really like a fire
burning uncontrollably
its negative and wrong
Arrogance personified
That just does not belong
here on this beautiful earth
