The End Of Sloth? Verses by Eric Stormer

despite slow
and sleepy
demeanor

clever
survivalist

blending in
conserving strength

but now
run headlong
into what
cannot outpace

gut microbes
crucial to digestion
perish at new
lower temperatures

leaving host ailing
sluggishly starving

victim of
changing times
altered clime

will our sloth
cause the end
of sloth?
