To Build
from a final project in a workshop class (animals)
these innocent souls
(Less than 3,000 remained by the 70’s)
continue losing their homes
as we keep building
more
and more
and more
look into their sad eyes,
(Only 1,000 remained in the 90’s)
leaking the oil and fumes
from us invading their homes,
their lungs,
their veins
their comfort of shelter and safety
(The panda's range had declined by about 99% by 2001)
once all theirs
slowly closing in around them
inch
by inch
by inch
