Herds


Herds
Laijon Liu 20180921

migrating masses, figures and shadows
constantly swarming on the plains
mooing their griefs and starvation
driven; chased and devoured by fate

the grass is green, regenerates in rain
after onslaught of drought season
the grass is greener on the other side
so, ford that rapid waters of terror

natural selection of their genes
competitions for speed, for escape
fittest to survive, to breed
to always be that victim or prey
