War Declared On Nature Forests Then Young Men Poem by Terence George Craddock
War Declared On Nature Forests Then Young Men
biodiversity the great forests
in Europe had already been
destroyed vast life destroyed
animal species not decimated
but genocide extinction destroyed
chains links in beautiful ecosystem
not just broken but extinction gone
habitat loss entire unique species
extinct extinct totally irretrievably
gone from previous habitat regions
never to be replaced reintroduced
extinction gone genocide destroyed
this was the real wasteland
far more deadly permanent
than a great trench line cut
across Europe in World War 1
lasting only from 1914 to 1918
a line of blood mud sliced diced
a mere red ribbon of puppet dancing death
land complete with shelled barbed wire
stomach stabbing bayonets machine guns
tanks gas rats lice infestations screaming shells
whining bullets bursting grenades shrapnel
blown apart limbs decaying youth body parts
Written in November 2020 on the 14&24.11.2020.
