Its gone up to 8354 pigs fished out of a Shanghai river

The Huang pu river feeds
into the Shanghai water supply
porcine circo virus
is apparently now high
the authorities say
the water is very safe to drink
but China;s vast pollution
problems takes them to the brink
rubbish is strewn everywhere
and contaminated soil
the air quality is awful
an environmental coil
is fairly close to unwinding
and now it seems today
more pigs have been fished
out of the water
this is way
more than really ever before
apparently farmers up stream
dump their pigs
its the way the see
of getting rid of those that die
its easy you just throw
them in the bloody river
and of course off they go
problem solved no burying
no burning one’s hands are clean
the problem is that Shanghai
is down river and have seen
so many bodies riddled
with maggots and the smell
even hard types vomit
its been a grisly spell
as for drinking the water
if I were them
I’d say
you can drink it
I am off
on my holiday
