When species are endangered,
what good are local bans?
Rather than save a bird, or plant,
we should make august plans.
If we consider honestly
why wild creatures die,
in every case, we all embrace
more than our share from Nature’s pie.
We’re now the tyrants of our orb,
and like despots never sated.
Unless we learn to share with all,
Man’s end anon is fated.
(we are now one)
