Draft horses live exports

The untruthfulness and mendacity
The deception that we see
Horses shipped from the US to Canada
They be
Loaded into crates at night
And then air shipped to Japan
To fulfil to the raw horse sashimi trade
That is needful of a ban

The cruelty and suffering
Is so beyond the pale
It is a waking nightmare
That should be set to fail
But is happening continually
Despite the angst and pain
Clearly the dreadful torture
That I view, with disdain

Beautiful handsome horses
Who prove the lack of care
In the US and in Canada
How can this be fair
Its inhuman its unconscious
Its inscrutable and wrong
Impenetrable and impervious
And just does not belong

The Meat Trade though lack scruples
Its money all the way
Everyone turns their blind eye
Its just profit and they pay
Not an ounce of empathy
Their inertia sickens me
They should share the transit
Share the woe and misery

Without food and water
Cramped up inside a crate
Already having faced a journey
Arriving in a state
Of shock of yes the third degree
Harrowing all the way
So odious and loathsome
That these animals have to pay

Such a price how frightful
Their fearfulness it builds
Its a principle of evil
Looking to raising yields
Each horse costs some 20,000
Dollars the average so I hear
The profit huge and degrading
That much sadly clear

Steeped in amorality
Degenerates all through
Unvirtuous and immoral
Their mothers they would screw
Vile and vicious miscreants
Who should be Locked away
Not allowed to carry on shipping
Horses
Criminals I say!

ATLAS AIR are they so broke
To continue with this trade
Shipping these poor horses
Its unfitting for they are paid
For what is extreme suffering
And they are guilty too
Its unpardonable and injurious
Not something they should do

And where is this trade ending up
Its going to Japan
We know how hard these people are
Why is there no ban
Its cruelty personified
And after all of this
These beautiful souls are slaughtered
All of us remiss

So they can eat their sashimi
With their garlic and their soy
Their sakuraniku that appears
To bring them extra joy
Heartless unaware perhaps
Of the ugly evil way
Of the fear and of the cruelty
That we know is in play

The Americans export their shame
And Canada appears
tranships horses in plain sight
Tbis wrongheadedness appears
To be known by all and sundry
But money is their thing
The Meat Trade is the murder trade
Its blood and guts they bring

Brutality and ill treatment
Utter barbarity
Some 7000 horses make this
Journey tragically
The outrageousness and savageness
Illwishing and ill willed
Collecting their blood money
For the innocent lives that are spilled

The shipment by air from Calgary to Tokyo
Takes 10 hours and 27 minutes
But the total journey is around 24 hours

Imagine this after having made the journey
From the US to Calgary in Canada by cramped transporter
Up to another 36 hours.
