The Corporates have taken ethic
out of their equation,
perhaps have reconstructed
its meaning to include
Morality and hypocrisy, calling them subjective
Hiding in the nether regions
construed by some as crude
Surely as a principle
they ought to have reflected
on all the salient points
surrounding cargo they permit
And by so doing openly
advertise parameters
for carrying captured primates
as and when they do see fit
This would give consignors
and consignees, the option
To allocate another carrier
perhaps, more to their choice
With the option to return
if their airline heard their voice
We do know that air freight
has been declining
Lucrative shipments
possibly may see
A way to keep the industry
on track, and thus live primates
are just something
that they feel now has to be.
Whatever, clearly there is,
some resentment
and shipping live wild primates
once so free
And the trapping of these creatures
and of course their tragic ending
on a slab in some alien laboratory
All of this is grist
To the great mill out there
Turning in the heavens far beyond
The simple thoughts of travellers
Whose want from A to B
Who do and will and must
all now respond
I would hope that now all parties think this business through
Corporates its unlikely will ever change
Money is their God,and piously
They will carry on regardless of what others think
Unrepentant,Unenlightened spiritually
