All for the love of Football

Ukraine has a lot to answer for
20 12, and football’
comes to town
but roaming in the streets are Dogs
and Cats
that are abandoned
and it seems the authorities
have to put them down

any animal on the street
is poisoned
then its shot
then burned, alas for them its tit for tat
sterilized that way it could not
reproduce
oh no! Ukraine has not the
time for that

gangs of ghastly gangster types
murder in cold blood
such action it unnerves
one’s consciousness
to see these victims
lying where they were despatched
their bodies mangled
their faces full of stress

And its all about the show
it must go on folks
the fans are coming
stadiums are new
and these abandoned
creatures roaming around the streets
they had to go
for that’s what people do

Compassion clearly wasn’t
in the spectrum
Benevolence, it too
decidedly
missing from the
heartless men of the Ukraine
who in the end
plumped for this butchery

for in the public glare
they ran the gauntlet
everyday, completely unaware
that their sorry days
were numbered
the authorities had
seen to that
the mobile crematorium
was there

Very few could now escape
even less survive
foul mouthed ruthless renegades
wilful to the tee
for the heartless
tearless cretins
now on the streets
they be

carrying out their vindictive
roles
punishing the ones
a relentless search is
under way
with their rather
powerful guns

Ukraine is getting ready
20 12 is here
packs of canines running about
brings on so much fear
and so the sweep of wild one’s
is ratcheted up so by
the time the teams arrive to play
every dog will die

a city free of morals
a city that can say
we had a problem
but we knew
of course there was a way

Murder them and burn them
wickedness, not so
what we do
is what we had to do
as well you know

as activists of course we
see distraction
of neglect,
of indignity
a fore thought
for years just left unchecked

and then came 20 12 and desperation
took a turn
employing those rough reprobates
whose viciousness was
to burn
these frightened lonely creatures
some of them, alive!
Imagine what went through their
minds
hopeful to survive

but burned in the crematorium
such a violent end
for what is described in literature
you got it!
