nature's power

Rhino's Horn

by mermaids

the allure of the rhino's horn
is the object of desire
for humans who believe
in it's value

but the remaining items
lie dormant, a gun,
a knife
as the pride feels full
under a setting sun

this time the poachers
lost to big cat hunger
nature's power
reigns

A story I just read on the internet tells of poachers seeking a rhino horn, are eaten by lions on a South African reserve.
