To disrespect the Bulls
so much
by setting fire to their horns
the vilest nastiest torture
tragically it never dawns
on these Spanish a holes
men and women who
partake in such seething torture
as obviously they do
these fine upright creatures
astounded by the fire
crippled by the emotion
their agony is dire
all their head skin scorching
their eyes bleeding too
and human beings doing
what only monsters do
and all of it for fun it seems
testing another’s power
to suffer dire disablement
it gets worse by the hour
