Baby elephants

Zimbabwe you are better
Than what we now do see
Selling baby elephants to CHINA
Yes you be
Selfish and very ignorant
babies need to be
With their mothers as you know
For years yes and at least three

And selling them to China
Breaking their social bond
These are little babies
Of course they are very fond
Of their mother
Of their mothers milk
Not the shit the Chinese give
They shouldn’t be kept in circus or in zoos
To let them live
in Africa
In family groups
That’s what God intended
They were your gift creation given to you
Which should have been defended

You might think you are clever
Your arrogance might say
We need China’s money
We need it come what may
But at the cost of selfishness
Of thirty babies who
Their whole lives will be ruined
For what you bastards do
Forgive me feeling angry
And showing it in prose
I cry for every baby
And every mum I suppose
Who is crying for their little one
That Zimbabwe thought should be
Just Shipped away to China
For their eternity

To be so unconscious
Such opportunistic souls
Imagine those thirty babies
Pining without controls
Lost without their mothers
And nobody else to care
So you have earned some CHINESE YUAN it’s true
But you seem so unaware
Of the absolutely cruel and nasty
Measure that you take
The heartbreak and the solace
And the misery you make
Not in just the Zimbabweans
In the elephant family
But all the warriors around the world
Who know this shouldn’t be

I know what its like to be lonely
To be all alone and frail
To be suffering
Orphans on your merry trail
Of other people earning
Nepotism yea
Aiding and abetting
And being just no where
Nobody to love you
Nobody to care
Completely out of the time zone
Of course it isn’t fair
It’s villainous disloyalty
It’s a frightening display
CHINA and all who do this
And of COURSE YES ZIMBABWE

I beg you stop these purchases
And shipments
From today
no more babies split up
From their families
Let me say
The money that you are earning
Your karma it is high
And everyone of these babies
Will be crying till they die
