Places we abandon
\nWe just ran away
\nAnd left whatever we did there
\nTo create the new decay<\/p>\n
Where life appears to continue
\nThe animal earthlings they
\nMove in and take up residence
\nAs soon as we go away
\nDespite all our affection
\nAnd sentient nature, they
\nCant wait to see the back of us
\nFor then they move in and say<\/p>\n
Good riddance to the human tribes
\nDestroyers of the air
\nThe water and the land on which they grow
\nFood, unaware
\nOf the poisons they created
\nAnd applied them everywhere
\nNot only were not sustainable
\nBut brought down on us despair<\/p>\n
Their inordinate power of ignorance
\nFor our destiny which they
\nWith arrogance and for profit
\nThey basically threw away
\nHow much hatred in their hearts
\nAnd aversion in their soul
\nAnd malice and resentment
\nIn their wish to just control<\/p>\n
To put their stamp on all our lives
\nIts unwelcome and its true
\nWe cannot wait to watch you leave
\nFor then may be the crew
\nThe mammals and the birds
\nCan ascertain and try to be
\nLiving in our bubble
\nAnd believing we are free<\/p>\n
In Chernobyl where radiation
\nIs scattered all about
\nWe know there is something badly wrong
\nWe do suffer the doubt
\nBut we just get on with living
\nIn the wilderness of will
\nIn utter desolation
\nAnd yes we feel that chill<\/p>\n
As we forage many undisturbed
\nBy the vagaries of man
\nThere is nothing kind about you
\nWe really were no fan
\nWe put up with your evil
\nYour empty houses now
\nEvidence of your ugliness
\nAnd why we are, no cash cow<\/p>\n
It will never be a sanctuary
\nIn human terms but we
\nAre living for however long
\nIn our own harmony
\nAnd that for us is something
\nLiving without fear
\nOf being shot shot and murdered
\nBy your low life that came here<\/p>\n
Then at Kolmanskop Namibia
\nYou made your diamond mines
\nYou threatened every living soul
\nAnd couldn’t see the signs
\nThe sky went black
\nTheir air was sick
\nThe water courses too
\nEverywhere around this place
\nWas doomed because of you<\/p>\n
We horses can forgive you
\nBut we did not run away
\nWe felt the ruination
\nBut to do this would display
\nA very uncaring attitude
\nFor Mother nature who
\nHad so designed this area
\nAnd so however few<\/p>\n
Months we have together here
\nIts worth so much to us
\nWe are free to make our own decisions
\nAnyway we discuss
\nOur futures and we live our lives
\nFree of your human stress
\nAnd that freedom it means everything
\nAnd our nerves we can redress<\/p>\n
In Bangkok the NEW world shopping mall
\ngreat ponds we have there
\n16,000 feet of it
\nWhich all of us can share
\nThe mosquito’s they took over
\nBut the likes of us
\nThe Koi and yes the Catfish
\nThere is nothing to discuss our joy<\/p>\n
We fill our rampant bellies
\nWith the larvae of the many
\nThe multitude how they exude
\nReally there isn’t any
\nReason to miss humans
\nWho caught us when they could
\nAnd ate us line and sinker
\nAnd of course that wasn’t good
\nSo now we have some freedom
\nWe have the sunlight too
\nIt permeates our being
\nAnd we all enjoy the view<\/p>\n
In Jumanji thats in Finland
\nAn old derelict place
\nThe house in the woods we call it
\nIts where we made our base
\nA dozen species coexist
\nIn harmony and its plain
\nIt works there is no human fear
\nWhich drove us all insane<\/p>\n
Pripyat the place of Chernobyl
\nI come back to it we
\nKnew the radiation would be here
\nFor eternity
\n20’000 years or more
\nAn extended world of strife
\nBut in honesty a few months
\nOf humans not here strife<\/p>\n
Is worth the dangerous goings on
\nUs wolves and rodents we
\nLiving and dying together
\nIn a place of harmony
\nShot to death and skinned alive
\nAnd trapped for all we were worth
\nTo you it was for our skins and fur
\nYou plundered Planet Earth<\/p>\n
Its no mans land and good as well
\nFor all you did was spoil
\nDump your shit around the place
\nIt made our blood boil
\nThe water once so sweet and clean
\nWas filthy just like you
\nThe leaves once green
\nTurned black as night
\nFor that is what you do<\/p>\n
In no mans land
\nIn South Korea, on the borders we
\nThe White necked Cranes the Amur Rats
\nThe Black bears we could be
\nThe Amur Leopard and the musk Deer
\nWe found our fortune here
\nNo hunters with their vile interpretations
\nDo appear<\/p>\n
So side by side we manage
\nThe balance has remained
\nWe all are friends together
\nThat must we have gained
\nThe squabbling and fighting
\nThe evil that we saw
\nHas gone from our lives actually
\nWe have peace we have no war<\/p>\n
Despite the loads of Land mines
\nAfter your Falklands war
\nUs penguins enjoy freedom
\nLike we never did before
\nWe see that some explosions happen
\nBut we sense now where they be
\nAnd how to go about life
\nThough its tense still we are free<\/p>\n
We have the independence
\nOf knowing its down to how
\nWe attempt to get through this
\nAs we live in the now
\n20’000 mines ago
\nWe lived here and we played
\nLove is what we all possess
\nThat is our stock in trade<\/p>\n
In New York the mass transit cars
\nThe red birds we are here
\nAgain we are a unit
\nOf peace and never fear
\nThe lead shot of existence
\nThat once you fired and we
\nExploded in your rotten sport
\nSo called our destiny<\/p>\n
On Okuno Shina Island
\nUs Rabbits thrive and play
\nBunnies come and bunnies go
\nEvery single day
\nThe streets are filled with all of us
\nOur fur is ours to keep
\nAngora might be your desire
\nBut we live our lives and reap<\/p>\n
What ever you have abandoned
\nLeft to us to be
\nRe balancing the areas
\nOf forest and of sea
\nThe indigenous lands
\nThe holy trails
\nThe pristine lakes of old
\nThat you never looked after
\nWhilst mining for your gold<\/p>\n
We are taking over
\nWe are making good
\nWe are living our pure lives
\nWe may be misunderstood
\nWe may live only a short time
\nBut in perfect harmony
\nWe all are earthlings actually
\nWhich we shall always be<\/p>\n
Maybe we are communists
\nMaybe we are just
\nLiving loving creatures
\nFree of sin and lust
\nFor other peoples lands and rivers
\nFor other peoples soul
\nYour greed we buried long ago
\nWhen we took over the role<\/p>\n
Of keepers of this planet
\nOf all the sweetest air
\nOf all the cool fresh water
\nThat now is everywhere
\nOf course there is predation
\nBut the slaughterhouses they
\nHave all gone by the wayside
\nWhen you lot went away<\/p>\n
How I Was able to write this poem
\nWas having read a post on “the beginning”
\nAbout men and women all being earthlings on the planet
\nAnd the animals taking over those places we abandon<\/p>\n
This page is shared between Claudia my dearest friend
\nAnd I, we admin this page please go and like it
\nAnd let us all take this poem to drive us all to
\nMaintaining the equilibrium that is so badly needed
\nOn Planet Earth NOw<\/p>\n
