Accelerate Passive
Rogue
How it hurts
One need not be a conservationist
To realize issues
That relate to the environment
Can best be seen
On how it had been abused
To accelerate development
Is to take short cuts
Cutting around the corners
Foliage and fauna get impinged upon
Wild beasts uprooted
Their habitat encroached
By man and heavy machinery
Pushed deeper into the jungles
They cower in groups
trying to survive
trying to survive
Or no more passive
They fight back
They plunder and destroy crops
Bull elephants
Are known to lead their herds
To cause havoc on cultivations
And settlements
Quickly blamed for being aggressive
Shot and killed
They are termed as rogue elephants, yes!

A point wonderfully well made. Let the elephants be in peace. They are incredible and beautiful animals.
ReplyDeletei find it astounding the denial of what we are doing ot our environment, you know. Far too many animals die off yearly....and our evironment is changing in ways we have never seen....look at the unstable jet stream....
ReplyDeleteLove elephants...Feel for them, specially now, when they face the extinction...
ReplyDeleteHumans like to close their eyes and pretend nothing is wrong
ReplyDeleteTurned away but that which helped create us..can certainly empathise..nicely done
ReplyDeleteexcellent point
ReplyDeleteYeah we just go and do whatever we please and then blame the animals for fighting back, pretty pathetic actually
ReplyDeleteIt is usually a human who is to blame, but they point fingers at animals who can't point back.
ReplyDeleteWell said, Hank.

Excellent. Point made.

You've gone and done it. Touched an area in my heart that beats strong and loud at the plight of animals displaced from their environments due to human invasion/greed. This world is becoming very unbalanced with the possible extinction of many animals because of game, greed or manipulating crops. There'll be a price to pay in the end; too bad those responsible lack that foresight. This was nicely done.
ReplyDeleteLovely message.. Yes, who is to blame? The victim shall be held responsible and be made to pay the price..as usually happens..
ReplyDeleteRS:)
This is well done and your point well made.
ReplyDeleteA modern day tragedy.
