There was a time when bears like me
\nWere hunted very regularly
\nNow the ice is melting fast
\nIt feels the die for me is cast
\nSeals no longer come to lie
\nFor me no reason to ask why
\nIts just so many humans feel
\nWe are surplus to their meal<\/p>\n
We are blamed for the lack of fish
\nIf its not cooked in their dish
\nWe wild ones our creative flair
\nIs best for you when we are not there
\nSeen as competition for
\nThe bloody buman carnivore<\/p>\n
Extinction it is coming Why?
\nI raid the bins to see if I
\nCan find a morsal but certainly
\nOnly foam which cannot be
\nA diet for a Polar bear
\nWho is now losing all his hair<\/p>\n
Nothingness and meagreness
\nA token to the extra stress
\nSo many phantoms around about
\nEthereal our fragile out
\nImaginary and characterless
\nI shall pass away and want for less<\/p>\n
Seen as inferior seen as odd
\nInadequate I have no god
\nTo beckon in my time if woe
\nI feel I do not want to go
\nI had a superiority
\nA kind if seniority
\nBut now I have to realise
\nThe human hunter gets his prize<\/p>\n
I do not have a supporting role
\nMy lowliness is some ice hole
\nOutshone and outclassed by a digital man
\nPlay second fiddle for thats the plan
\nObscurity descend and be
\nSubordinate to the likes of thee<\/p>\n
My bones they hurt, my stomach too
\nChaos reigns such turmoil, who?
\nWill come to feed me the end feels nigh
\nI look up straight into the sky
\nThe bitter end my destiny
\nIs coming closer finally<\/p>\n
Infinity a boundless mass
\nStruggling through the great morass
\nWithout a number endurance feels
\nLiking biding its time till it reveals
\nAn evanescence a fragility
\nJust a brief span left to try and see
\nA fleeting shoal a seal or two
\nWill they sacrifice for you<\/p>\n
You overfish your by-catch hurts
\nPerseverance comes in spurts
\nContamination is everywhere
\nThe seals are dying how they despair
\nThe unsustainable problem you
\nYou perpetuate yes you do<\/p>\n
Greed and power and mightiness
\nAttributed to vigourousness
\nOur vulnerability takes away
\nThe exhaustion of each coming day
\nToothless hairless deposed alas
\nOur world is barren an exhausted mass
\nHow I hobble in so much pain
\nSo unsteady it be the bane<\/p>\n
Of my sad life, my frailty
\nDown to my inactivity
\nDebilitated sapped and low
\nDisabled by the powers who know
\nIf not the the wilds then its the zoo
\nWhere we are neutralized and made to do
\nWhere no wild soul would want to be
\nOn its last legs for all to see<\/p>\n
And so this camera looked at me
\nI tried to hide I am a refugee
\nDislodged from home and in exile
\nEvicted really as if on trial
\nFor eating fish that humans need
\nIn no mansland I can’t succeed<\/p>\n
Can I? all the best is yours
\nYour tv chefs take the applause
\nThe michelin stars are everywhere
\nFish is plentiful but to share
\nThe wilderness with the likes of you
\nWe aboriginies through and through<\/p>\n
Dont get a look in not anymore
\nStanding on the final shore
\nWe watch you waste deface pollute
\nHarpoon gill nets even shoot
\nWhat chance have we us polar bears
\nNo chance and sadly no one cares.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
