Such a brief work, but a powerful message on the cruelties of life and nature. Its the never ending cycle, everything eats someone else, in the animal world or the human world. Fantastic stuff!

One of those rare poems that came in a flash. And seems to be quite popular. Thank you so much, Kevin for believing it to be fantastic.

Thank you, Dr. Nehal. Sometimes, simplicity in poetry is very effective. Other times, it's misconstrued and gets me in hot water.

Eating and being eaten is the truth of the animal world.

It also appears to be the philosophy, and policy, of dictatorships. And various corporations!
