V. The last tree

Look at the monkey
holding on to the last tree
what is he going to do
come and live with me or you?

Look at the hawk
he will not eat that last mouse
they just look each other in the eye.
and the spider she leaves the fly.

Look at the tiger
laying with it's prey
but he never killed it today.

Look at the hound
with the fox
they are running from the
hunters call, they will run
they will fall.

Look at the fish with the worm
she lets it go and he digs for shelter
and the dog licks the cat
and she never spat.

Look at the man
with his hand on the gun
and his finger on the button
he has killed the world
and all its beauty
for honour peace and duty.
