24. (11-14-19, Lewiston High School) Animal Code
Received, but not responded
No chance to decipher yet
Feral, and never fond
No hope of hearing now
Rustles in a bush
Pissing in a lake
The predators rush
For the red meat’s sake
Simple and refined
Never intertwined
There’s poison in the pocket
Hidden by the blind
Glowing like an eye
The flame bounces higher
As the bird sets off to fly
It splashes in the mire
Water starts to boil
Feathers start to steam
This primitive perspective
Is bursting at the seam
Untame and unbound
Panic now surrounds
Refusal of all orders
Disregarding borders
Nature is a witness
As the crow flies
Nature is beholden
As the crow dies
