Galapagos Hunting
Barbaric I thought,
And brilliant.
Shooting from a helicopter
Typical humans
Primates with advanced technology
Not afraid to fly
Too dainty to touch the ground
Three goats are felled
After a quick few shots
Down quick
Unhurried, then a rapid fall
And as I watched
Without modernity’s cancer of offence
I saw the turtles
The hunter wanted to defend.
