Monsters

Monsters

There are monsters awake in the fields
changing the way we do farming,
increasing, it's said, underyields,
which many folk find most alarming.

Changing the way we do farming
by tinkering with the genetics,
which many folk find most alarming,
is driving some into frenetics.

By tinkering with the genetics
of food we regarded as stable,
is driving some into frenetics
producing hysterical fables.

Food we regarded as stable,
it's in danger of being transmuted,
producing hysterical fables.
The science must be refuted!

It's in danger of being transmuted,
increasing, it's said, underyields.
The science must be refuted!
There are monsters awake in the fields.
