The Forest Roamers
March 7, 2016
So peaceful, gentle,
content with whatever
grows from the ground.
You roam
without worry.
I shudder–
to think of what might
be your fate.
A camouflage jacket,
a covered rifle.
BANG!
Blasted, cut
down,
for what gain?
Antlers? Glory? Leather? Some meat?
A carcass, spilling
blood.
An innocent life,
taken for the use
of another.
