Ejiao

ITS THE beloved Donkey
EQUUS ASINUS

a gentle hard working animal

good natured let’s discuss

how charming and  how friendly

these gentle beasts become

and to think the Chinese

murder them

to make gelatin  that some

ignorant, supposedly traditional CTM  brigade

strip them of their  precious skin
for the beauty trade

ejiao cake and porridge

supposedly helps the skin
making it more youthful

how did they begin

to have that in their  crazy heads

that so much cruelty would show

a profit for the sicko’s

who are just not in the know

years before it was cowhide
but now the Donkeys die

they make a Chinese pastry cake

thats no word of a lie

supposedly it nourishesThe blood from tired old fools
or it’s put in anti aging creams

For cruelty it rules

a hard gel made from donkey skins
dissolved in hot water will
make the ugliest pretty

and it seems they use it still

they forget about the donkeys

Who are skinned alive tis said

Thousands  being slaughtered

hammered on the head

and stripped bare of their tough skin

the agony they feel

screaming out  in terror

a sound so awfully real.
