Sharks have a long pedigree
\nA vast bank on which to call
\nEvolution tempers the philosophy
\nOf all
\nExistence as we know it
\nTheir historicity
\nBursting with improvements
\nTo their substantivity<\/p>\n
450 million years
\nA timely proposition
\nSurvivors of 5 mass extinctions
\nA tangible rendition
\nWe, miniscule ant like humans
\nSome sixty thousand years
\nWe have seen developments
\nBut for me it all appears
\nThe ultimate in arrogance
\nTo imagine that we can
\nMurder sharks
\nFor a bowl of soup
\nA great plan of man<\/p>\n
To obliterate a species
\nAn apex predator that
\nIs an integral member
\nOf the ocean and where we are at
\nIs A very significant crossroads
\nIn the embodiment of power
\nWhich is wholly not instinctive
\nAnd we must must now query how<\/p>\n
Such a gift an absoluteness
\nIs treated in this way
\nIs falsely accused of predation
\nOn humans for to say
\nSuch is a diversion
\nIts what creation gives
\nA present for humanity
\nrelated to who lives<\/p>\n
Inventive and truly undermined
\nA miracle of force
\nNever emulated has been a
\nA driving force
\nA gradualness of purity by
\nAdjustment and by design
\nFar in advance of consumers
\nWith their compensatory whine<\/p>\n
Today I single out the greatest
\nBeing that we know
\nThe Great Hammerhead and extraordinary soul
\nThats truly in its flow
\nAnd is fast becoming endangered
\nThanks to the lust of man
\nwho believes he is in ascendancy
\nSince all of life began<\/p>\n
Looking at this fellow
\nWith a bold mishapen head
\nSome of the lofty princly rich
\nWould cut off their fins tis said
\nAnd borrow the flavour of chicken
\nAnd the chemical MSG
\nAnd concoct a vile and disgusting bowl
\nOf what is depravity<\/p>\n
At the lack of understanding
\nOf the alien creatures who
\nFrequent our massive oceans
\nAnd seldom come to view
\nUs truly inferior beings
\nAs to our senses so to say
\nThe aeons of development
\nThat have shown all sharks the way<\/p>\n
Their wholeness and their integrity
\nTheir order actually
\nComparitively speaking
\nTheir hierarchy
\nIn perfection of their senses
\nHas been prioritised and we
\nHave these old souls in our oceans
\nWith adaptations that now be<\/p>\n
Far advanced in real terms
\nThan our science of the day
\nWho spend their bleak hours studying them
\nAll along the way
\nTo waste such historicity
\nIn a bowl of soup to me
\nIs an arrogance and true crime
\nAgainst humanity<\/p>\n
Their hearing sight and smell
\ncommunicates And they
\nAre being slaughtered by the boat load
\nEvery single day
\nThoughtless unstudied low life
\nDealers in animals parts
\nBroken individuals
\nWith shit for brains and no hearts<\/p>\n
Being allowed to torture
\nAnd murder them at will
\nFor the pleasure
\nOf the gastronome
\nWho All buy into this
\nFor the swill
\nFor the so called pompous showy
\nInflated vulgar stew
\nCosting an arm precious fins
\nIts slavish and its true<\/p>\n
The sharks and more especially
\nThe Great Hammerhead should be
\nRespected for what it is
\nA gift to humanity
\nA highly regarded hunter
\nBoth sensitive and strong
\nThat feasts its eyes on sting rays
\nAnd squid and does belong
\nwhere they have plied for aoens
\nIn The oceans of the blue
\nRespect is what I am calling for
\nNow from all of you<\/p>\n
They so are advanced beings
\nThey are miracles in fact
\nWhich just shows me how wasteful
\nFor diners to react
\nTo be fobbed of by the restauranteurs
\nWho profit Now each time
\nAnd encourage rotten low life
\nTo continue with this crime<\/p>\n
They are miraculous creation
\nSo advanced and they
\nReally must be protected
\nIn the cool light of the day
\nTheir abilities are top knotch
\nElctro reception and more
\nThey are anazingly sensitive
\nWithout any flaw<\/p>\n
The need is to protect them
\nNot fill the ocean blue
\nWith trillions of plastic jettison
\nWhich is what we do
\nWe punish and condemn the angels
\nWe castigate those who
\nGive their time and money
\nTo help and to be true<\/p>\n
We abandon moderation
\nExcessiveness now rules
\nConsumerism and wastefulness
\nSelf indulgent fools
\nImmoderate and excessive
\nFish restaurants everywhere
\nWhere the hell is temperateness?
\nWhy cant we be aware?<\/p>\n
We are syphoning off the wild life
\nThat we cannot replace
\nWe look upon the vegan clan
\nAs some sort of disgrace
\nFrugality and abstinence
\nOfcourse its not for us
\nWe are emptying the oceans
\nWith no time to discuss<\/p>\n
How it affects the creatures
\nThe trillions of souls now there
\nFighting through our discarded shit
\nWhich is poisoning their air
\nAnd we appear so forgetful
\nOf the pollution that we cause
\nAnd that we now consume it to
\nAnd all without a pause<\/p>\n
Look at commercial fishing
\nSee the wasteful loss
\nLife is cheap for fish eaters
\nWho do not give a toss
\nEvery excuse in every book
\nTo be complicit we
\nAre literally emptying out
\nThe life
\nThat was always in the sea<\/p>\n
Oil and radiation plastics
\nChucked away
\nThe oceans are our dustbins
\nThat appears the way
\nForward its extraordinary
\nHow insensitive we are
\nHow unworthy of the miracles
\nOf life that we just scar<\/p>\n
45o million years if that was not enough
\nThe 5 great mass extinctions
\nWhen life on earth was tough
\nSome of the sharks came through all that
\nBut now the greed and ill
\nOf man who is for certain most unkind
\nAll he wants is to kill<\/p>\n
And then change his vocabulary
\nCull not kill he feels
\nHis dumbed down low life customers
\nA nice fat fish appeals
\nLoaded with methyl mercury
\nAnd extra PCB’s
\nRadiation and excrement
\nAnd plastic if you please<\/p>\n
Sharks are not man killers
\nTheir world is their world
\nCreation gave them balance
\nAnd what we have done has hurled
\nThe vast and miraculous ocean
\nInto a teaming heap
\nOf rottenness and ugliness
\nWhere those there are left to weep<\/p>\n
Invaders of their wonderment
\nEnslavers of their young
\nPolluters of their environment
\nWhere everything is flung
\nOverboard or dumped
\nIn great quantities every day
\nAnd we wonder why reality
\nHas come home and we now pay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
