Iran took one young
Primate
and decided what they’d do
is strap the poor soul
in a harness
restrained
what could it do?
but shake and shiver
drenched in fear
as it was launched into
space up there
far from its roots
their judgement was askew
and just look at its torment
its agony and fear
bandaged its so very cruel
really to appear
its traumatized
and as it is
its photographed
yes too
Iran clearly knows no better
its a step back
yes its true
primates are abused
by all and sundry
every day
everywhere we
cage them
strip them
of their dignity
experiment on them
its seems to be our view
its right when we are doing it
we all are guilty here
for creating all this shock
and horror and all of this fear
and for the other creatures too
experimented on
for these or those
strange potions
more and more of them gone
dead lost to this awful world
so we can test upon
just to tick some boxes
laboratories decide
to torture and to murder
but behind closed doors they hide
