\/>\nWho take a different view<br \/>\nThey are like a monstrous snowball<br \/>\nThat is rolling every day<br \/>\nAnd smothering our wild life<br \/>\nAll along the way<\/p>\n<p>Its run by men and women with eyes<br \/>\nThat cannot see<br \/>\nWith hearts that have now withered<br \/>\nHaving lost humility<br \/>\nFor what is  all around us<br \/>\nThe simplicity of life<br \/>\nThe tiniest unseen insect<br \/>\nLanguishing in their strife<\/p>\n<p>The fact that we cannot see them<br \/>\nDoes&#8217;t make them less<br \/>\nimportant than the elephant<br \/>\nThat I need to stress<br \/>\nOur natural world is made up<br \/>\nOf trillions of souls that do<br \/>\nTheir bit for the environment<br \/>\nTheir connection don&#8217;t misconstrue<\/p>\n<p>I marvel at the indigenous peoples<br \/>\nThose first souls to a place<br \/>\nDiscovering the miracles<br \/>\nWith their strength and grace<br \/>\nThey are indeed our saviours<br \/>\nOur mentors on this sphere<br \/>\nNot the bloody scientists<br \/>\nNot the ones you hear<\/p>\n<p>Paid to work by corporate money<br \/>\nTheir work is overseen<br \/>\nWhatever is the outcome<br \/>\nGood bad or obscene<br \/>\nThe corporation then decides<br \/>\nHow to use that stuff<br \/>\nNot you not governments no one else<br \/>\nhave you heard enough<\/p>\n<p>Every single creature<br \/>\nExisting on this plain<br \/>\nHas a place in nature<br \/>\nThat may sound insane<br \/>\nBut its a truth I promise you<br \/>\nEvery single soul<br \/>\nNeeds All the  other souls around<br \/>\nThats the great mothers goal<\/p>\n<p>The indigenous they see this<br \/>\nThey thoroughly comprehend<br \/>\nThey didn&#8217;t listen to some professor<br \/>\nWhat they do is spend<br \/>\nTime within the area<br \/>\nThey write down all they learn<br \/>\nIts instinctive knowledge<br \/>\nAnd we should all concern<\/p>\n<p>Ourselves with this for this is light<br \/>\nBright health providing light<br \/>\nIts not wrapped up in margins<br \/>\nIn profits out of sight<br \/>\nIts not a corporate message<br \/>\nBut still it affects us all<br \/>\nThe ant that walks beneath our feet<br \/>\nAnd the lizard on the wall<\/p>\n<p>The elephants that roam<br \/>\nThe dwindling habitat abroad<br \/>\nThe bed bug in the smelly sheets<br \/>\nEach has a reward<br \/>\nEach plant each tree each flower<br \/>\nEach one truly has a place<br \/>\nAnd our destruction every day<br \/>\nShows our ignorant face<\/p>\n<p>monsatan a huge ediface<br \/>\nWhere ant people exist<br \/>\nNot truly thinking human beings<br \/>\nBut those now in a mist<br \/>\nNot really knowing where they are going<br \/>\nNot really seeing life<br \/>\nI call them the ant people<br \/>\nFor arrogance and strife<\/p>\n<p>Is metered to them daily<br \/>\nTheir instructions come from on high<br \/>\nNot from Mother Nature<br \/>\nBut the corporate lineage, I<br \/>\nShudder as they so compute<br \/>\nTheir cocktails of the night<br \/>\nTheir one off profit sourcing mix<br \/>\nThat brings its share of blight<\/p>\n<p>So to one Monarch butterfly<br \/>\nOn orange black and white<br \/>\nWings its flutters too and from<br \/>\nIn its infinite light<br \/>\nLiving on the milkweed<br \/>\nThe nectar of the flower<br \/>\nWhere it finds vast realms of nutrients<br \/>\nTo give it all its power<\/p>\n<p>To ward off certain predation<br \/>\nMilkweeds toxic force<br \/>\nIs stored inside the butterfly<br \/>\nAnd it stays there of course<br \/>\nTo frighten would be predators<br \/>\nWho will wither in its path<br \/>\nThe knowledge of the ancients<br \/>\nWithin the bath<br \/>\nOf toxins that obliterate<br \/>\nThe predator who may<br \/>\nBe ignorant of this factor<br \/>\nTo their complete dismay<\/p>\n<p>Greed and profit are great waves<br \/>\nOf negativity<br \/>\nWhen thats the only wish for them<br \/>\nAnd their eyes cannot see<br \/>\nThe little things around them<br \/>\nAll part of the whole<br \/>\nBut not part of the profit and loss<br \/>\nThats when they lose control<\/p>\n<p>Thats when we see the imbalances<br \/>\nThe extinctions and much more<br \/>\nThats when long term we lose everything<br \/>\nTo go against the law<br \/>\nOf nature is pure arrogance<br \/>\nAnd monsatan and the rest<br \/>\nRise in size but like dinosaurs<br \/>\nTheir environment will test<\/p>\n<p>Them one day, they will suffer<br \/>\nBut before them many more<br \/>\nWill fall by the wayside<br \/>\nEnd up blood and gore<br \/>\nAnd we so called human beings<br \/>\nSo called ruling race<br \/>\nMoving like degenerates<br \/>\nBut not keeping pace<\/p>\n<p>With the energy of our universe<br \/>\nWith the structure of our world<br \/>\nWe are all seeds of creation<br \/>\nOn this planet we were hurled<br \/>\nTo share the wholesome wonderment<br \/>\nProvided for us all<br \/>\nBut alas power has corrupted us<br \/>\nAnd with it we all shall fall<\/p>\n<p>The monarch butterfly is falling<br \/>\nAs many before<br \/>\nWe are killing off the milkweeds<br \/>\nWith the roundup and more<br \/>\nProfit was the motive monsatan&#8217;s coffers grow<br \/>\nAnd the farmers too are at it<br \/>\nThough most of them don&#8217;t know<\/p>\n<p>As we grow older some of us<br \/>\nRealise the sin<br \/>\nLook over towards the indigenous people<br \/>\nYes just take a spin<br \/>\nTo where they are<br \/>\nBe humble seek their sweet reply<br \/>\nWatch them in their day to day life experiences<br \/>\nAnd sigh<\/p>\n<p>Sigh because they matter<br \/>\nEach creature great and small<br \/>\nRemember the hymn that we all sang<br \/>\nThe lord god made them all<\/p>\n<p>Someone great and mighty<br \/>\nCreation the great soul<br \/>\nWhether god or goddess<br \/>\nThey had the glorious role<br \/>\nNot monsatan not the corporates<br \/>\nThese are the cancerous sods<br \/>\nThese are the vilest darkest forces<br \/>\nFar removed from gods<\/p>\n<p>As each of you go about each day<br \/>\ni beg you be aware<br \/>\nEvery species has such worth<br \/>\nSo honestly so share<br \/>\nThe wondrous gifts of nature<br \/>\nWith everyone you see<br \/>\nRespect every creature<br \/>\nEvery plants and every tree<\/p>\n<p>When we respect our environment<br \/>\nWe respect each other<br \/>\nLook upon the natural world<br \/>\nOut there<br \/>\nAs your great mother<\/p>\n<p> And we shall all prosper<br \/>\nAlong with every butterfly every ant every one of us<br \/>\nWe all Are part of this great planet because<br \/>\nWe learned to share what we were given<br \/>\nThose who do the opposite will eventually<br \/>\nDie out like the dinosaurs did<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monsatan thats my take
