Elephant
I imagine a time where I'm not worried,
Spending time with my family,
Frolicking in water,
Playing with my brother and sisters,
Happy
Carefree
This is not my reality.
I am scared of the bipedal creature
Who slaughters my family
Guns blazing
Spears sharp
Piercing skin
Drawing blood
Drawing the last breath
My heart bleeds
like the wounds of my brothers
Is my tusk worth my life?
