Luis Gil de la Puente - Survival of the Fittest

2014-11-07 3 Dailymotion

Dovecots are about fo fall down.
Greyhounds die hanging
from the trees
and dogs chase deer
Until shot dead.

Pork keeps getting cheaper,
More abundant, tastier,
High fat diet.
Pigs overfed on garbage
live unconciously,
produce noise
and defecate at will.

Toads in held up,
stinking,
polluted waters,
belch and reproduce
happily adapted
to their environment.

Snakes creep,
they move unseen,
they hiss their misery
when they perceive
the prey
they kill
effortless.
Silence remains.

Discretion is required,
Cooperation is welcome,
Docility, please.

Meanwhile,
unstoppable
the order of truth
moves forward.

Luis Gil de la Puente
