As the gathering
of penguins by
the ocean side,
pestering the fishes
and fending for
themselves,
but also unwittingly
exposed as a
prey for others.
So are the
oppressors among
the people ravaging
and causing havoc
without knowing
they too exposed
themselves as a
mark to be
targeted when the
time is ripe.
The seagull calls,
warned of serious
impending danger.
But none listens,
for deafness is
one of their
many failings.
Among the creatures
of the earth,
man is the
only one so
very destructive.
So oppressive to
each other and
trying to see
how far he
can get with
his ability to
dare to do.
Not knowing that,
him too will
be in distress
and so devastated
and disadvantaged.
Would he had
known all of these,
none of these
countless dis-ease
would visit to
ravage him.
