Too slow, too slow the turtles go, too slow for man to fear, too slow, too slow to even know, the universe is here. Too slow to hate and ravage, too slow to know 'the plot,' too slow to trash the forests, too slow to smash the lot. Too slow to think 'life is a bore.' too slow to instigate a war. A bit too slow for cunning guile, much too slow to fake a smile. Too slow to wonder why they're here, too slow to wish we'd disappear. Too slow to ooze religion (for which men kill to claim ,) too slow to know that skin can show, which group to hate and blame. Too slow, too slowthe turtles go, I wish mankind did too, but we're too fast to ever last, this fact, I know- is true .
