Have you any idea
what its actually like
to be holed
up in this awful shed
and what tike
could dream up a system
a great feathered throng
herded together
where we don’t belong
masses of feathers
huddles of beaks
clusters of sharp feet
many are freaks
bred for their great breasts
on broken legs, they
fall on each other
and some rot away
the smell is obnoxious
the closeness is too
its a great writhing mess of heartaches
and poo
a barn rich enclosure
ammonia fills
the air and the water
where all our blood spills
the maggots do scamper
the worms wriggle too
this is the hell hole
created by you
we live in this shit hole
we suffer such strain
we are deafened
by squawkings
and have nothing to gain
but rancour and hatred
of, man un kind
whose spiritless nowadays
till on us he’s dined
on our maggoty soup
on our repulsive meat
that some have considered
a bit of a treat
we are full of disease
we are lost in a way
broken and torn
in a world of dismay
