Humanity Risks Danger Species Extinct In Fossil Record

Rating: 5.0


there is a danger in dismissing the rights
of animals to live free in wild places
there is a danger in dismissing the rights
of animals to life in free rein survival habitats
there is a danger in dismissing the rights
of sentient ecosystems to exist in balance
there is a danger in dismissing the rights
of animals to exist in rain forest earth lungs

a danger in fear distain way we view predators
the way we villainize label view animals like wolves
when all forests are cut down can we breathe dust
earth is weeping ice caps glaciers into salt oceans
earth chokes on poisonous pollutants man made
humanity risks danger species extinct in fossil record

there is a grave danger in dismissing the rights of animals
to live free in wild places the way we view animals like wolves
wild wolves live in harmony it is humanity which destroys

mysteries answers to sentience are coded into ecosystems
life abundant lives breathes in survival joy explorations
vast sacred diversity sentience presence deepens wilderness
