A little being
By Lisa Noe

There it sits a beggar, looking for a drop of water
It thirsts for both liquid nourishment and knowledge.
A tiny creature from another world but there it sits
Begging from the common man just one drop
It needs to quench it thirst in both ways.
A tiny little being from somewhere far away
Seeking to learn from we humans
And so on the side of the road, it crouches
Making not a sound, just holding out its pitiful hand
Wanting a nugget of knowledge
So he might understand.
Why mankind destroys instead if trying to save.
Its body is so frail, so tiny and deformed
Yet it sits there looking sad and lonely
Or will it soon attack!
