In Defence of the Lesser

Then it was Sunday and the easterly wind
curled around the house rattling windows
the hooligan is in an intimidating mood
the rain came, big scary drops that held stones
and sand of hatred in its interior.
Towns drowned as rivers overflowed and
the old and babies died hyperthermia.

We have tampered with nature axed trees
and our intelligence of pure logic will soon
destroy us as expendable humans and then
when humanity is so stupid, they can`t even
make a proper sling; there will be lush forests
palm dates and peace, but only if we stay
dumb, and favour love above anything else.
