Guangxi Dog festival in June

Tied to a tree
and bludgeoned to death
this the reality
fighting for breath
but are they fighting?
reality shows
peacefully they lie
in a repose
in this world it clearly
is painful to be
severely beaten
whilst tied to a tree
its best to die
to move on
to a place
where the rainbows illuminate
all of our space
where bridges cross over
great crystal streams
and all we can see
comes from our sweet dreams
