Badgers and government

wildness is a quality of life

and we have here

Foxes  Badgers Weasels Squirrels

yes and Deer

all around us  rabbits Hares

we know

they improve  the fabric

and seldom do they show

nocturnal many of them

having to compete

with us lot and the dangers

how they remain discreet

with vehicles and speed limits

dog walkers and the rest

hunters shooters trappers

all of this does test

resolve in them for certain

pheasant of the  field

munjacs all competing

though many stay concealed

blamed for all and sundry

animals everywhere

take the poor old Bruin

who is very aware

family life is rigorous

and now bovine TB

meat and dairy have a lot of weight

behind them actually

lobbying the government

cattle and TB

blaming it on badgers

not the farmers, who be

cutting corners themselves

on the given feed

and big pharma’s medicines

no ofcourse they seize

the badgers,  get the government

to cull them  put an end

two schools of thought

does it do the trick

or extend their range

the  sick undoubtedly

is occurring  figures up and down

setts   under scrutiny

it only takes one clown

to upset the apple cart

sensitivity wild souls do live on their wits

more so  than you or me .
