TEARS OF THE BEREAVED JUMBO

I walk in the savannah,
eat grass, eat bark
I have no qualms with you,
your children or your property.
 



Why then?
tell me,
why then?
do you travel,
leave your country,
leave your city,
desert your comfort,
fly far, drive far,
to my God given paradise,
my God given home,
not alone,
with a stick,
a stick  painted with blood.
Why?
tell me please,
why?
do you kill me,
murder me cruelly
for my God given tool,
for my God given hand,
the one that helps me feed,
the one that makes me a Jumbo,
Why?
tell me please.
Do you want me no more?
please, answer me,
Do you want me to,
follow the route of dinosaurs?
become extinct?
Please answer me,
For you've killed,
My great great grandpa,
my great great grandma,
And recently you killed my wife,
Please answer me,
do you want me extinct,
Do you?

PAINFULLY LOST

A tap on the door,
A bang on the door,
A bellowing roar,
Open up, or else!!
Bang!!! the door falls off.
 
She could not see them,
they had hoods on them,
they had a foul smell,
the smell of destruction,
the foul foul smell of beasts.
 

Give us all your money!!
the sturdy figure bellowed,
she cowered and pointed,
a slim figure moved on,
came back with a bag.
 
She wimpered,
all she had saved now gone,
gone, gone, just like that,
from having to nothingness,
and in a flink of a minute.
 
Hold her down,
she had him bellow,
rough hands,
hard slap,
then
she felt it,
tearing her outside and inside,
she felt another one mount,
another one, another one.
 
she opened her eyes,
the nurse was there,
the reality was there,
she no longer had her pride,
she shed a tear,
a painful tear,
for what she had been saving,
saving hard fo marriage had gone,
gone so painfully.
