Mistrust Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Mistrust

Lucy, now known, famous
Chimpanzee
Was murdered and skinned
Her mistake was simple
Loving man
And trust.

Cecil too faced same fate
Guard betrayed; killed hunter
Her mistake was simple
Loving man
And trust.

Now many animals have question:
“Does mankind worth trust? ”

The question is too old; passed around
By the hosts betrayed by new guests
Brutal invaders enslaved.

“A tour guide, Swales, was murdered”
Safari’s news said: “by lion…”
Zimbabwe.
