Some people under principles of
Christianity
Imagine they have answers
It’s their supremacy
Over the animal earthlings
Who run the gauntlet, who
May be trying to communicate
But human beings do
Not understand their language
Their unrivalled desire
And in this place in Central Peru
They treat the fire with fire
Punishing a dog it seems
By tying it on the back
Of a raging bull
In a bull ring
Who faces an attack
At first I thought
They might have imagined
The two souls emotionally
Were put together to help each other
But of course it was not to be
It was sick demented reasoning
That the bull would soon be killed
And the dog too would be slaughtered
And the blood that would be spilled
Would transcend the favour somehow
By teaching that canine
To stay in it’s place
Enjoy good grace
Somehow see the sign
What a bunch of retards
Parasitical creeps
Unworthy to be called humans
The loving soul now weeps
For the egregious cruelty
The torture of two fine souls
Paraded out of the arena
To be murdered
Clearly poles apart
From humane beings
Defective and immature
To allow this mutilation
And imagine it’s a cure
It’s order less and incoherent
A chaotic state of mind
As undisciplined and riotous
As any thing you will find
And in the name of the virgin
Deranged beyond compare
It’s never the day of judgement
For they clearly are not there
And to pay and watch this loathing
This spitefulness this pain
This blood lust this brutality
Shows a vindictive disdain
For the animals and the people
Dehumanised and sick
Not a place to visit
Clearly or be in the thick
The evil eye is clearly
Aware of what goes on
In the name of the Virgin Mary
That somehow, has gone
Totally awry somewhere
For a curse appears to be
Sanctioned by their authorities
In what is misanthropy
One must fear the outcome
Those animals that have died
In a callous show of heartlessness
That alas has been denied

Thank you for writing this. I’m speechless. Blessed be brother.
My dear Susan. It always good to support my sister in Africa but the animals get what they never deserve from so called humans and there appears no let up in our fight to expose them. Good to hear from you
Blessed be x
