I find it hard to come
to terms
with the decision that
you made
calling time on 2 sentients
for some ghoulish parade
$3000 you forked out
and more for them to be
stuffed
I have to say aloud
that I simply can’t agree
to me it was a total waste of
2 bright souls
who shone
for now they will
bring karma of the
worst kind down upon
your museum
and again I say
I do hope that you see
subscriptions dropping
off now
and significantly
possibly on reflection
this judgement
it will show
whoever made it
in their heart
the sadness
it will grow
for the 2 of them
will act as real reminders
of a crime
committed by the museum
and remembered for all time
