Array ( [sid] => 163808 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Life As a Rhino [time] => 2010-12-20 00:15:40 [hometext] => Rhino's are getting slaughtered in SA in search of their horns. luckily the South African goverment are busy winning their fight against these monsters. My last line was inspired by the Abba song [bodytext] => Eating grass
Nothing to do
It's a beautiful South African summer's day,

A single shot
I fall to the gound

My baby look at me
Bewilderd, Horror, Shock in her face
She turns around and run
God only knows
Where will she go
Run my baby girl , run.

i'm watching her
I'm dying,
Blood streaming from my face
Blood streaming from my face
I know the next day i'll be on the front page

Why can't they just leave us alone
They can't because it's
Money, Money , Money
And they wanna live in a Rich Man's world

Yes a wasteful slaughter of a fine animal for all the wrong reasons

I had no idea this was going on, but your poem conveyed all the right emotions for this tragedy.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
