Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Progress? - LP Zoo

I'm Mito, female snow monkey,
Newcomer to Lincoln Park Zoo.
Nearby, I see and hear there be
The rearranging humans do,
Chopping down maple trees to plant
Elm trees in dif'rent rows instead.
Humans make sense of it - I can't.
Human faces should blush more red.
I hear penguins used to be here,
Where we snow monkeys now reside.
I wonder when we'll disappear,
For replacement, humans decide.

Have to get used to it, I guess.
Humans do dumb - call it progress.
