Taiji fishermen are now preparing
their battle Royale
with angels of the sea
the dolphins and the Porpoise
and the Melon headed whales
the pilots
all these pods
a swimming free
its all about illusion
and deception
a trait these violent fishermen possess
taking on the valour and the bravery
of sea born mammals
with created stress
A baby wounded
thats when we see gallantry
resoluteness
no elder will leave
the loyalty of families
are exploited by the Japanese
who intimidate
and frighten with such ease
so soon they will be out there
doing vile things
driving and harpooning
both they do
Pet food just imagine that
and captured souls for sea parks
who gives them the right
The clueless who
murder godly souls
to make huge profits
such irresponsibility
and they
these Fishermen of Taiji
rotten to the core
wiping out whole families
every day.
