The Big Blue Ball |

Floating majestically in the void, in the black Is a big blue ball with a weight on its back To see it from up here it seems so serene But with the right ears you can hear its cold scream Move closer my friend and take a hard look See what they’re doing. See what they took From the depths of the blackness it all looks so calm Who could imagine the damage, the harm? The blue ball is dying and crying for in pain And why? So its keepers can strive for more gain They’re gouging and digging and peeling its skin ‘Till its bleeding without and raging within Slowly but surely they torture the ball Choking it, starving it, taking it all The balance so carefully built over years Is falling apart as its fabric just tears Will these keepers slow down? Will their actions abate? Will they learn the hard lesson before it’s too late? The big blue ball, once a smile now a frown The hue slowly turning from blue to dark brown What the keepers don’t realize and no word of a lie When the blue ball starts crying… THEY DIE!
