So their arrogance created
\nAn energy in me
\nTheir vile MANIpulation
\nMy philosophy
\nTo crawl away from ignorance
\nTheir ugliest refrain
\nTheir wanting to inseminate
\nAn elder yet again<\/p>\n
It would have been the fifth time
\nSuch guile such artfulness
\nZoo’s believe their sleight of hand
\nCan actually redress
\nAll the darkly vileness
\nAnd duplicity
\nWith no respect for age and feelings
\nAnd the impractiability<\/p>\n
My venerable decision
\nThough burdensome still strong
\nWas to fight this misapplication
\nBecause I felt it wrong
\nIt was a violation
\nThey desecrated me
\nContinued with the disrespect
\nIn an attempt to be<\/p>\n
Seen as well the heroes
\nIn soft shelled turtles eyes
\nAt 90 years of age
\nI was to be the prize
\nCandidate for giving
\nMy precious race a way
\nOf carrying on in this hell hole
\nAs a being made to pay<\/p>\n
The writing clearly on the wall
\nMy inner soul proclaimed
\nIf ever there was a caveat
\nA wake-up called inflamed
\nEvery single tissue
\nIn a ancient body and
\nBucking up the courage
\nI had to understand<\/p>\n
Escape was now an inkling
\nDecampment to beyond
\nThe rainbow bridge it beckoned
\nA place of peace
\nSo fond
\nWas I of true serenity
\nThe remedy to soul
\nTo meditate forever
\nTo perpetually control<\/p>\n
The outcome for those infants
\nEntering a world
\nOf tinkering and blinkering
\nYes they would be hurled
\nInto the brightest limelight
\nTo ameliorate and be
\nPart of the transformation
\nAnd where would I be ?<\/p>\n
