Anton the courageous ape,
was given a family treasure.
A wonderful magical golden cape,
that he wore with the greatest of pleasure
Passed down through generations,
within his family tree,
he was now the 'Chosen One',
to represent the free
His Mum made him a suit in red,
mask and boots, he got from Dad.
Dressed now as Anton Super Ape
to defend against all Bad!
His job; to stop the humans,
from chopping down the trees.
For surely they should realise,
the world´s now on it's knees.
Trees provide us all with air,
living the longest on this earth.
Helping to keep the climate clean
and prove to us their worth
So Anton´s now an Ambas
Forests are chopped down
Oceans are filtered of life
All to feed a global swarm
These swarming creatures
Wise, yet unmotivated
Not seeking alternatives
Natives become nuisances
The issue goes unnoticed
The world becomes unbalanced
The wise must realize that now
The eastern lindworm
A hunter and grave robber
An island giant
A tail like a whip
Gifted with the spit of death
And chainmail for skin
Many creatures are fair game
Among them, their own offspring
Yet there is another side
One that can be overlooked
But can be observed
When in the care of the apes
A kind of brightness
Slightly tamable
Recognizing caretakers
And playful at times
A small, fierce gnawer
Stalking like a cat
Howling like a wolf
Slaying scorpions
Shielded from their hurtful tails
The stings numbing agony
But another prey
Armored and many-footed
With attery fangs
Willing to feast upon them
Not exempt from their toxins
Another tactic is used
Dodging and biting
Evading its deadly strikes
Until the venomer falls
The hunter has been hunted
To celebrate its success
It cries into the night sky
