E Jiao (the cruelest medicine known to mankind)

Africa has been supplying donkeys
Far and wide
Most go off to China
Who wants them for their hide
Soaked and stewed it makes a gelatine
Substance that is used
As a medicine apparently
Which is why they are abused

Kenya one such country
Had banned the export they
Aware of all the cruelty
Happening every day
But apparently the scene is there
And What China has done
Is Bought and built An abattoir
Now working in the sun

GOLDOX Donkey Abattoir
In Mogotio
Baringo County, Kenya
The Chinese themselves Know
Opening the facility and they
Manage up to 1000 donkeys
And sadly there they slay

The locals complain of the frightful
Stench
That emanates from there
All those little donkeys
Is anyone aware?
Of The torture and the killing
In the making of E JIAO
Sometimes mixed with oyster shell
Ground up to a flour

Its alleged that it heals bleeding
cough And dizziness
Skin whitening cream apparently
but of course the stress
It causes now in Kenya
And all around the world
And how the donkeys suffer
When sadly then are hurled

Head long into torture
And criminality
So much pain and awfulness
How can China be
So wicked and so flagrant
to these good natured innocent souls
Who face so much wrong doing
And simply no controls

Supposedly it’s also used
For Cancer patients who
After chemotherapy
Take it and they do
Recover much more quickly
Is also used to make
A reed for a Chinese instrument
The di zi a kind of flake
That makes the flute sound very nice
It’s been used for many a year
Back to 1724 when it’s said it did appear.
