Fay Slimm - Protecting the Wild.

When we learn not to tamper.
Respect all things wild,
Then land and inhabitant
Will not stay maligned
As at present. When reason
Sends signals to cease
Interference, a season
Of prosperous peace
Can begin. Wilderness sings
When allowed. Protect
Then inheritance, it brings
It's own prize, rejects
Only crass carelessness
And rebels by its death.
Must we want blood on our hands?
