“Transfixed”
Written for World Rhino Day 2024 but based on a Title more than two years old, after seeing the artwork 'Waiwai and Delia' by Charlotte Williams and immediately coming up with 'Transfixed'. There are less than 25,000 Rhinos left in the world. There is one major reason for this, poaching for the horn to be used in Traditional Asian Medicine. Therefore, I was unable to write the poem without tackling the underlying reason for the clear and present danger of extinction.
