Rats & Roaches

So I've been told, we are what we eat,
And you get the government you deserve.
You're known by the company you keep.
Buddhists say we become what we observe.

So what does it say about who we are
That as our most beautiful wildlife dies,
The creatures that thrive with our cities and cars
Are rats & roaches & pigeons & flies?

It says a lot. Well said. 👏👍💚

😱 That we've become greedy, arrogant and non caring maybe?! A good observation 👏😘

Ha so true 😃

@eddie12309 @sjw @glen Thanks for the RPs! I don't know if we are arrogant and uncaring, or just too stupid to recognize a brick wall approaching through the fog at highway speed ...
