The City

What if cities were wildlife preserves for humans

 

The only specimens that exists there

Are ones that are going or went

extinct in the wild

 

What if cities were wildlife preserves for humans

 

San Francisco

New York

Oakland

LA

All places where people are born and reared

Into captivity

 

Going somewhere else

Traveling the world

The same as escaping into the wild

 

Some of us are too rare

Some of us have forgotten how to adapt

Some of us were already at the brink

Some of us are the last

 

What if cities were wildlife preserves for humans

 

The city

 

Some say they can’t make.

 

Some don’t know

 

It’s the only place they can survive.
