Custodians of Nature
Let’s not make the mistake
Of not treating
Our Indigenous People
With dignity and respect
Their lifestyle may be
Not anything like ours
If they don’t join the rat race
Or submit to the economy
Chasing its own tail
Like a dog gone mad
Wealth they may not assemble
As theirs is to use, not to have
Custodians of nature, they are
