Corporation coles where are your souls

The iconic ones
Your judgement stuns
To stoop down to this low
A place in whats called retail
Where no one needs to go
The Kangaroo has leapt into
Our hearts for so many years
Depicted on great rock art
And now in bags, our tears
As history reminds us all
Coles descends into
A swamp and darkness follows
How can this be true

Four different bags of Kangaroo
On Coles shelves today
Such irreverence of a native
Such dishonour and they pay
A price for being Australian
Created to be so
Totems in the finest sense
With an eternal glow

Injurious decisions
Denigratory
To marginalize bush angels
To create such treachery
Unique in all the world they be
Godly and alone
They have noble integrity
And a constancy they own

To see their flesh
To see their bones
Sold off in packaged sin
Profitting from such shamefulness
That seems to underpin
The need to assist the Meat Trade
To carve out unconscientiousness
Falsehood and injustice
Villainous distress

I can’t abide you selling out
A wild soul in this way
Its treasonous chicanery
And I do regret the day
That Unscrupulous persuasion
Questionable as to why
A retail outfit such as you
Would lapse and mystify

Do you have to be so wicked?
Such heinousness abroad
Transgress into our psyche
Who can now afford
To allow our hearts to harden
As unprincipled we be
To take up the temptation
Of desirability

To murder our wild kangaroos
And sell them in your stores
Advertise their gracelessness
Expecting some applause
Its felonious and nefarious
Scandalous and wrong
To authorise more shooters
To support the delinquent throng

Murdering the females
Stomping on the kin
The joeys decapitated
For me just to begin
To write such truths such ugliness
And imagine it can be
Happening even faster now
That Coles has audaciously

Joined the raids on nature
On totems of the plains
That she would lower standards
For their ill gotten gains
Slaughtering the wild life
That was put here to protect
That has done so for millions of years
Always circumspect
As genuine as ever protecting of our land
Respected by the people
Who did understand

People who imported cattle and sheep
Into this place
Whose hooves have torn our lands apart
Surely the disgrace
To search into the night skies
With floodlit four by fours
Shooting down the innocent
With the softest kindest paws

Their babies and their sucklings
Murdered in a thrice
Butchered in the darkness
Amid the flies a price
No creator ever imagined
On a gift given away
The Kangaroo was Iconic
And now its forced to pay

And that Coles is now complicit
Aiding and abetting
A blunder a omission
And possibly is netting
Profit out of evil
Out of disrespect of life
As the butchers in the darkness
Dispatch our angels with a knife

Amid the flies the bacteria
The dirt the dust the pain
So many roo’s are injured
And hop away, disdain
agony
Will run them down
A death as slow that we
Imagining their terror
But ofcourse we do not see

The joeys and the pinkies
The miracles within
Eaten by the eagles
The atrocity of sin
Censurable and deadly
Nothing pious here
The only possible atonement
Is to stop this
Which is clear

To me
Abandon this
profilgacy
This insatiable appetite
For slaughtering the Australians
Who in their purest light
Are shown to be self-disciplined
Economical and proud
They are ruminants who produce methane
But are one of the crowd
Who utilize it for themselves
As a cooling energy
Unlike the cattle and the sheep
Who are bucking synergy

The methane they produce
Alas
Destroys the ozone and we
See climate change now threatening
It was never meant to be
The kangaroos are a friendly tribe
Here to guarantee
long term survival for us all
as so lets let them be

Lets use the brains we were born with
And remember the aoens before
Coles was ever thought of
That the kangaroo’s were sure
That aboriginie people
Took charge and ruled the land
Alongside all the animal tribes
Who all instinctively understand
The need for wildness everywhere
For betterment was the rule
For moderation and caring
And temperance for all
