Look at me through some bars if you can

Soft warm and innocent
Blamelessly so
A state of grace
Harmless you know
Sweetly inoffensive
Playfully you
Are gently angelic
Excused all you do

A good moral strength
Saintly of soul
You walk oh so humbly
But with such control
In total tenderness
Humanity
Loves what you are
And your wish to be free

Kindness and favour
Sweet charity
So well intentioned
Soft heartledly
Fondness and liking
A tendency
For infatuation
And amiability

The unkind ones
Such a detestation they
Pick you up by your
Tails and cart you away
Such awful ill feeling
And hatefulness we
Stare out of the bars
With sad eyes that now see

And feel the resentment
And heart burning pain
The pique and the bile
And the grudging refrain
The soreness the hatred
The snarl and the scowl
The wrathy inferno
Perhaps the deep howl
The social circle
The gregarious load
Follow me follow
Down the long road

Why the hostility
Imperious ones
Hubristic and arrogance
Daughters and sons
Suffer so much
From the hands of those who
Torture and harm us
Yes all of our crew

They an effrontery
Blustering on
They are disdainful
Out there upon
The trucks that will carry us
To the abattoir
Steeped in the hopelessness
To where you are

You who consume us
How is it you
Can have that vile habit
And do what you do
Slaughter our children
Who are so at peace
Who have so much tenderness
And who release
Such charm
Such refinement
Enchanting us all
Comely and goodly
And bonny
A rule
of thumb
So appealing and kissable
They
You torture you beat up
And Just make them pay

Doleful and plaining
Their sorrow
Their sighs
Their tearful expressions
Their red bloodshot eyes
Their wondrous Devineness
Such a numinous role
And look at us now
Hooked up on that pole
Having perished a moment
Tears in their eyes
Just little children
Soon they will be pies
In some oven some dish
With the herbs and the cream
And the crisp golden crust
Or so it would seem
