CLEMENCY

 

CLEMENCY

 

 

Poverty illiteracy plays havoc,

Inhuman customs vices sock,

Practice blindly followed best,

Animal sacrifices, clear forest, (1)

 

Evergreen forestland changes,

Cultivate barren land amazes,

Beautiful river waterfall sight,

Fishery carry logs far, delight, (2)

 

Hunting animal trade life feel,

Picture, nation tribal tranquil,

Century, time witness nature,

Humans part of nature secure, (3)

 

Modern time transforms soon,

Wealth-of-forest transfer boon,

Vanishes dense forest, woods,

Urbanization grow life broods, (4)

 

Ancient tribal life see, gadget,

Disbelieve sock, enough asset,

Poorer people least anticipate,

Discover forest mineral estate, (5)

 

Precious metal export creates,

Prosperous tribal land relates,

Destroys landscape fates seal,

New millennium living reveal, (6)

 

Cruelty insanity blinds reason,

Sick suppressed tribal treason,

Nationhood tribal division test,

Different-race, ethnicity detest, (7)

 

Outside influence incite bitter,

Picturesque landscape wither,

Fratricidal war engulf quickly,

Hunger death face life meekly, (viii)

 

Weather climate worst enemy,

Crop failure, famine-company,

Dry-land, riverbed lake desert,

Beauty disappear nature hurt, (9)

 

Drop-of-water lives search test,

Dies with children thirsty rest,

Destiny fate humans negative,

Never determine deed reactive, (10)

 

Mines disfigured golden earth,

Turns rugged rocky soil worth,

Desolation display song tragic,

Once-paradise, stand hell lick, (11)

 

Lick human lives animal past,

Leafless dead tree ghostly cast,

Columns of refugee leave tally,

Leaves sacred soil death valley, (12)

 

Hunger lust for life survive bit,

Cross borders force enter neat,

Not groups million strive hard,

Push neighbor nation forward, (13)

 

Beg mercy migrant sick dying,

Alarms local people, horrifying,

Stubbornly protest, push back,

Humanity at crossroad n lack, (14)

 

Clemency only conscience hail,

Accommodate accord rule wail,

Accord citizenship food shelter,

Humanity bitter test little alter, (15)

 

Mankind witnesses world-over,

Black deeds worst kind uproar,

Modernization, mankind curse,

Save refugees clemency reverse. (16)
