From prehistoric ancestry
\nThis armour plated soul
\nA digging horn of keratin
\nWho understands their role
\nCompletely vegetarian
\nAnd can reach a tonne in weight
\nNot the most intelligent
\nBut a sad victim of late<\/p>\n
They do not have teeth they
\nPluck at food
\nUse their lips in fact
\nBut they have a good digestion
\nFermentation they react
\nIts so sad they are victims
\nOf arrogance and shame
\nWhich began with Chinese medicine
\nAnd the doctrine of signatures too
\nSupposedly good for libido
\nWhich is simply untrue<\/p>\n
A significant intrusion
\nThe delusion and the guile
\nThe horn is purely keratin
\nAs are finger nails
\nA while
\nTo ponder on this wonderful soul
\nWho has a precious horn
\nAnd is critically endangered
\nThe moment it is born<\/p>\n
14 million years ago
\nThey came to earth to be
\nPerfectly designed then
\nAnd we still can see
\nThem living but mostly dying
\nDue to lies and much deceit
\nKeratin cures nothing
\nThose who do this cheat<\/p>\n
Its delusional activity
\nEach Rhino dies in pain
\nFor nothing its no cure all
\nTheir precious deaths are in vain
\nWe have to wake those people up
\nAnd tell them to realise
\nRhino horn has no properties
\nWhy is that a surprise?<\/p>\n
That the black market
\nMakes it out to be
\nIt really isn’t fair
\nThese animals are innocent
\nIts the humans that are not aware
\nAnd the carnage and brutality
\nThe poaching and the price
\nWe all pay for such ignorance
\nWhich Is anything but nice<\/p>\n
My appeal to China
\nIs to be honest with us all
\nWe can save the rhinoceros
\nAs a guy he is no fool
\nThe horn will make no difference
\nTo anyone who is sick
\nAll it proves is the criminals
\nConsider you as thick<\/p>\n
