Tears In The Zoo by benega: 1:14pm On Nov 03, 2015
Evolution is now in the reverse,
Homo sapiens begins to degenerate,
Bringing to bear the raw instincts,
And the chaotic operations of the animal kingdom


Unity and cooperation takes a bow,
As survival of the fittest becomes the other of the day,
Justice evaporates entirely, leaving behind the useless jungle variant.
Evils are perpetrated without fear of repercussion.


The moral compasses are long lost
Heinous deeds are now applauded, valiant deeds scorned.
The serpent is rewarded for its cunning.
The patient dog starves to death.


As the.bigger animals make food of the smaller ones,
Broken bodies decorate the landscape.
As the predators go about their business,
Sounds of despair and distress combine producing the heartbreaking music of the zoo.
