War is coming simply because it is time for a culling.

They say it themselves with shotguns resting on their shoulders

Y’just have t’cull ’em

There are far too many

Deer

Sheep

Rabbits

Ducks

Geese

Etcetera

Etcetera

Etcetera

Humans

The great swinging pendulum swings

As his eyes narrow to disappointed slits of light and colour and blackness

Make your choice

Pestilence or bloodshed

If we don’t kill them

They will overrun themselves

And the other creatures in their ecosystem

They said it themselves

Voice thin with convincing

They said it themselves and they stand by the truth of it

And,

If they are true and they are right

Then it must apply

To all things

Death is an error

Fault in the coding

Thus, it must be stopped before it can get out of control.

You do not solve a fire by pouring on more fire so it consumes faster.

One more time

They said it themselves.
