In Kenya those who live
\nClose by to the bush
\nApparently
\nAre farming maize
\nFor selling
\nBut are finding tragically
\nWild animals like elephants
\nAnd porcupines come by
\nAt night and dig the crops up
\nIn Kiambu they rely<\/p>\n
On food like we all do to live
\nAnd when the crops are bad
\nPillagers are sacrified
\nIt really has got sad
\nBush meat is one aanswer
\nKilling the porcupine
\nSupposedly the flesh tastes sweet
\nSome think its divine<\/p>\n
These animals are raiding
\nGraves digging in the ground
\nUnearthing corpses regularly
\nThat what the villagers have found
\nElephants come by its seems
\nAnd also eat the maize
\nDestroy it so that the people
\nTheir crops they cannot raise<\/p>\n
They live close to the bush ofcourse
\nAnd expect to get away
\nWith wild animals passing
\nAnd not eating its the problem of the today
\nHabitat loss is growing
\nThe people growing crops
\nOn the animals territory
\nimagining it stops<\/p>\n
The animals from foraging
\nIts madness to believe
\nThe animals seeing native crops
\nWill just well up and leave<\/p>\n
These animals they carry
\nFleas and diseases too.
\nand rooting in the graveyards
\nOne must take the view
\nEating flesh cannot be safe
\nOn every level they
\nAre suffering the vagaries
\nAnd the animals too pay<\/p>\n
Elephant and porcupine
\nAnd other primates too
\nAre being shot and killed and eaten
\nIts what the people do
\nBush meat is considered
\nProtein similarly
\nIn towns where there are
\nDomesticated meats
\nIts a delicacy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
