Such remorse and compunction
\nSuch sadness I feel
\nFor the number of elephants
\nDead
\nThat appeal
\nTo my senses is heartfelt
\nIn lockdown today
\nWith a storm raging our
\nOutside
\nQuite simply it may<\/p>\n
Bring so many tears to my own eyes
\nFor I
\nDo so love elephants
\nAnd am not shy
\nTo confirm I feel their pain
\nTheir habiTats lost
\nAnd all of them tragically
\nBearing the cost<\/p>\n
20 we know of died
\nYes in June
\nIn parts of south India
\nAnd probably soon
\nMore souls will follow
\nMurdered because
\nThey were in the wrong place
\nAt the wrong time
\nThey was
\nFeeding perhaps
\nOr just wondering where
\nThey could get water
\nBeing so unaware<\/p>\n
all tender hearted
\nDisposed to cry
\nOur lack of pity
\nThe city so dry
\nWhere there was once water
\nNow it\u2019s no more
\nWherever we go
\nIt\u2019s so like war<\/p>\n
Fire crackers everywhere
\nFrighten us so
\nElectric fences
\nWhere we cannot go
\nTraps and yes rifles
\nAnd spears everywhere
\nToo many hard hearts
\nNo one will share<\/p>\n
Many wrongdoers
\nVillains they be
\nReady to stab us
\nNobody\u2019s free
\nNot anymore
\nEverywhere is a pain
\nAnd more and more of us
\nAre becoming insane<\/p>\n
A few show goodwill
\nAnd offer us food
\nKindness in small bits
\nHowever crude
\nWe lap up whatever
\nAnd keep well away
\nFrom the trains and the lorries
\nThat make us all pay<\/p>\n
So much indifference
\nAnd unconcern
\nInsouciance growing
\nall that we learn
\nIs taken away
\nWe are wary Of dangers
\nNow Everyday<\/p>\n
So self preservation
\nIs now very high
\nWe come upon old bones
\nOf those who did die
\nWe leave our respects
\nWe remember them well
\nWith deliberation
\nWe confirm here is Hell<\/p>\n
