Extinction

Whoopsie! Another one bites the dust

It's like watching an Attenborough doco

The lion of lies swipes another believer down

We gawk, twist our brow, shake our heads and nay

It's become entertaining to see all the boobytraps take out the weak and do nothing

Just look on as the vulnerable fall and squirm

We have become ashamed of the mortality that reflects back

We sit in stadium rows like gods of the Divine Counsel

And think the wild beasts in the arena can't get us

We're too clever for that with all our knowledge, scientific expertise and sophistocation

What happens when the Empire runs out of Jesus freaks

Animals gotta eat

And demons too

Hi Al. Oh wow this is powerful and gritty and very true. Some wicked lines...

we sit in stadium rows like gods of the divine counsel 

And this verse:
we are too clever for that....

What I like you saying is that humans will get their comeuppance for killing animals with no regard of life...the end says it all....

It's so sad humans are doing this.
Its brilliantly versed and nature will win eventually. Sssoo pinned!
