The last day of my life on your fucking awful planet

 

I am a cow

and its grotesque now how

we live in prisons

not in  green fields

in concrete cells

and its all about yields

 

its a big concentration camp

we get our  tag

stapled on our ears

its such a drag

sleep  we don’t get any rest any more

we are milked half to death

that’s life  in the raw

 

 

its dirty its smelly

its frighteningly so

we’re made pregnant

and then our babies you know

are stolen and killed

or sent off for veal

or lost to the cheese firms

and that is for real

 

 

the CAFO, dairies are big hell on earth

we are controlled

we  do have, some worth

but only if we can produce

all the time

if we’re tired, if we’re are sick

then there’s no bloody rhyme

 

or reason for them to be caring

and so

we are kicked  we are bashed

they don’t want to know

 

 

so  I am disabled

a downer I’m called

I cannot walk

so they now have hauled

me onto a truck

for where I must go

is down to the death camp

to be killed

they don’t show

 

one ounce of empathy

or compassion,  you guessed

no matter how much I am bloody well

stressed

 

in pain  and exhausted

no one helps me

if I can’t crawl

by myself

then I’ve had it

and, we

 

cows know its  terrible

when we’re like this

nobody loves us

they are taking the piss!

 

we are threatened and beaten

and violently so

and in my case

used prods

in my ears “electro”

 

the pain is excruciatingly awful to bear

its drives you insane

how come they’re not aware

they are complete trolls

monsters they are

they then tied a rope around my neck

and as far

 

as I can remember

around the truck and drove it

and thats when I ran out of luck

 

I was dragged off the truck

with a terrible jolt

2 broken hind legs

and my pelvis

the result

 

now I was feeling just so much more pain

each time my heart beat

I was going insane

 

bleeding inside

feeling sick as could be

hoping that Hathor

would now come for me

 

 

now I was laying out in the yard

in the full sun

I had no guard

 

I was now  burning

I couldn’t lay here

somehow I dragged myself

hauled myself clear

 

a little shade

the stock men don’t care

I  wanted some water

but there was none there

 

 

I shit I just shit out all the pain in my soul

I pissed myself dry

my only goal

 

that was left was to die

somehow

just fade away

emotionally dry

 

and really just bloody well just close my eyes

hopeful that death

would not be the surprise

 

then a sweet women called Jessie Pearce

came by with water

the sun now was fierce

 

humans are monsters

humans are freaks

they stink of their cowardice

everywhere wreaks

 

then a stockman appeared

who wants to kill me

imagine that feeling

how would it be

a troll taking over my life

actually

 

my executioner a young nasty sod

a gun in his had

where was his god

 

where would he point it

how would it feel

to be shot to be dying

it all became real

 

 

where were the friendly ones

where were they, I

was left on my own

knowing soon I would die

 

either from shock

from the pain of it all

or the deep down emotions

that were now on call

 

 

but he never killed me

he just walked away

I drank up some water

how was I to pay

 

for this state I was in

what was I to feel

then Jess went away

I couldn’t conceal

 

 

the anguish for Jessie had left me

and now

someone might come

and kill me

but how

 

I got through those hours

I can’t begin to say

all of those sick thoughts

were with me today

 

you humans are lousy

you humans so sick

so wretched so arrogant

what made me pick

 

this place to come to

earth what a place

and the way you treat earthlings

is such a disgrace

 

 

when Jessie came back

I just about saw

it was her  why had she gone

that just did floor

 

me,  I must say

the one friend

so called

had  gone away

and dog s were now biting me

eating me, they

 

what has come over them

why take their scorn

out on a cow

another new dawn

 

and  not just physically

emotionally too

suffering terribly

because of what you

 

humans they let you down

all of the time

great with their mouths

but don’t give a dime

 

the police then they came

and by this time I knew

the sun had gone down

what was there to do

 

cry out for Hathor

beg her to come

beg her to take me

I needed some

 

love and affection

not hatred and awe

why is this happening to me

then a loud crack

and  no more

 

they wanted my flesh

that’s beyond belief

they wanted my blood

they called it their beef

they wanted my skin

for their boots and their shoes

they wanted my soul

but Hathor did refuse

 

at the end of the day

the atrocious way

animals die here

someone,  has to say

someone has to plea

for all who now cry

for honestly humans

this is no place to die
