Shinzo Abe you are a guy to think about
You have come through many storms
And clearly will
Fight like hell for all that you believe
In
What you call pure culture well you still
Take the Liberal Democratic options
But clearly Dolphin drives are not your thing
The people fight the whale ban but Dolphin meat
They hate
It stinks to high heaven everybody says that
So the fate
Of 20,000 Dolphins apparently is that
They are sold on to the aqua parks
That is where the fat
Is coming from
not eating them
Those slaughtered and sold there
The mongers and the sellers
The smell they cannot bear
Shinzo Abe looks around the world for friends
I hear
And turns his thoughts to India who have made it clear
They don’t like these aqua parks
With cetaceans doing tricks
And Sea World are now going down
Being knocked for six
Killing all these dolphins
Just 24 fishermen
Working out of Taiji
Has nothing to do with ZEN
Its vile and cruel and Shinzo is losing
Face today
With India and China and others
Who now say
Sacrificing dolphins for pet food
And fertiliser
Is tantamount to evil
Its not the cultural delicacy
Nor the appetiser
And Shinzo better realise
Since he is after friends
That all of this destruction
Is where his message ends
The twenty four odd fishermen
Now bring Japan down to
A lower class of peoples
Its ruinous and its true
Especially since the dolphins
That they slaughter when they can
Are hated by consumers
So it all goes down the pan
If the flesh stinks horribly
And consumer shy away
Lets stop this expedition
Do something right and say
We apologise for the errors
And the terrors we perform
We shall now stop killing dolphins
And face whatever storm
Is likely from the fisherman
Pay them off and better still
Imprison them for crimes against the state
For The blood they spill
Reminds so many people
Of the wars of yesteryear
And how the Japanese tend to act
Creating so much fear
And of course these dolphins are loaded
With toxins which does grow
Radiation pcb’s and mercury
You know
Losing face is your problem
Its happening today
If Shinzo wants more friends
He has to stop this right away
Intransigent behaviour
Harps back to bygone days
And despite all of his rhetoric
Of course now what it says
Is Japan’s in the dark ages still
Hard hearted will not face
The relentless torture and slaughter
Of what is the dolphin race
Their flesh so packed with toxins
The stench from their meat drives
Consumers to the lavatory
Suffering from hives
And all manner of skin complaints
And sickness through and through
Stop this murdering stop this torturing
Make friends now will you
Love it 🙂
Good its gone direct to him and tweeted to him and to his government
But you can see I have thought about him and his role too
About face and the loss of it about what he is interested in globally
Really an appeal to him as a person
Thanks for coming to the blog x
Beautiful poem, and too the point.
Thank you. Irene thankyou so much it cuts me up something rotten
To see such beautiful sensitive breathing mammals with brains larger than tiaji fisherman hacked and pithed ro death in front of each other it is so awful x
Masterful. Thank you
Very kind of you to say so thank you lets hope gradually we are chipping away at him and his country.
