Quatrain of Other Creatures

Other Creatures - who lives and who dies

What would the earth look like
if every creature was
left to fend
for itself
unabated?

What if man didn't have a say
in the animal kingdom
and each was left
as he was
created?

The world would be a different
place, most creatures
would perish without
any great
delay,

God gave the rules to man, but
man chooses the rules
for other creatures,
to be hunter or
prey.
