A Crime Against Nature Poem by Francis Duggan

It is the Law of Nature as some do like to say
That creatures kill smaller creatures to live every day
If the carnivores do not eat meat the carnivores cannot hope to live
So they do not have sins as such for to forgive

But the proof of a crime against Nature the other day i did see
And of how cruel some humans can be again brought home to me
A dead kangaroo in his neck a bullet hole
Whoever did this not worthy of a mentoring role

For younger people and sadder to say
The roo he shot would have been left to die in the most painful way
To discharge a firearm in a National Park is a federal offense
In such a callous act how can one see any sense

The Karma we sow we must reap one day
And the person who shot the kangarooo and left it to die in the most painful way
To Karma surely has a huge price to pay
What goes around comes around as some like to say.
