On the pretence of being professional<\/p>\n
Delusions seemingly<\/p>\n
self applause and flattery<\/p>\n
its where some folk can be<\/p>\n
on safari in Botswana<\/p>\n
with a rifle at ones hip<\/p>\n
under wild skies filming<\/p>\n
the big white hunter clip<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
a beautiful sensitive elephant<\/p>\n
full of guts and show<\/p>\n
A new age \u00a0white hunter in his jungle gear<\/p>\n
in flow<\/p>\n
Aims his rifle pointedly<\/p>\n
Cock of \u00a0the wall and all<\/p>\n
pulls the trigger the elephant drops<\/p>\n
who was the biggest fool<\/p>\n
the elephant lies writhing<\/p>\n
the bullet missed the mark<\/p>\n
Two more \u00a0tries \u00a0to realise<\/p>\n
and lift him from his dark<\/p>\n
this spokesman for the NRA<\/p>\n
didn\u2019t make the kill<\/p>\n
Despite all of his bluster<\/p>\n
the victim wasn\u2019t still<\/p>\n
the animals great nobleness<\/p>\n
was tortured but \u00a0still alive<\/p>\n
withered laurels sadly<\/p>\n
he had taken a nose dive<\/p>\n
and the expert witness<\/p>\n
fired the killing shot<\/p>\n
Despite \u00a0his status symbol
\na true hunter he was not<\/p>\n
his wife took on the mantle<\/p>\n
she shot one and she killed<\/p>\n
Cut its \u00a0tail \u00a0off Victory she shouted<\/p>\n
she had spilled<\/p>\n
the blood of a handsome Elephant<\/p>\n
such irreverence we saw<\/p>\n
a plethora of histrionics<\/p>\n
like nothing seen before<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
the poet looks on guardedly<\/p>\n
how innocence that day<\/p>\n
Became the height of indecorum<\/p>\n
as sweet souls passed away<\/p>\n
what became a hideosity<\/p>\n
and an offence to the eyes<\/p>\n
Two grotesque deformed angelic souls<\/p>\n
rising to the skies.<\/p>\n
