Friend At My Feet

A friend at my feet
Lying on the ground
Sighing without sound
Looking at my seat

Us humans are no treat
When we treat you with neglect
Never stopping to reflect
Ignorance scalds like heat

We see a rabbit on the street
I feel your tail beneath my shoe
How much evil us humans do
Beside you I feel defeat

Why don't you go free?
You look as my chair
Empties as you stare;
Please, don't be like me.
