let them eat cake

We may no longer feed bananas to monkeys
  in captivity
A travesty
  for too long we have let them eat cake

freed mink reek havok
  in unfree ecosystems
Intervention got it wrong
  again

liberation may come in the form of
  death
Test rabbits up in flames
  going out with a bang may be better than
  prison + torture

I am trapped
  by money
  by gender
  by law
And escape may be the death of me
  when the earthquake (tsunami, flood, ice-age, heat-wave, drought, extinction)
  comes

honouring the spider in our kitchen
we don't swing our arms too high
observe her each day
she may be the most free
  may we learn from her web
