Doesn’t it sound romantic
Cherries bursting with fruit
Cranswick the owners
500 complaints
Truly in dispute
7000 pigs having nose bleeds
Aching heads as well
a fog of vile ammonia drifts through the air
An unhealthy sell
squeals and harrowing violence
diseased the piglets lie
corpses close to an aquifer
outside of planning , Why.?
Expecting the council to allow them
to get off this Scott free
environmental squalor
is no mystery
cherry tree farm
it just sounds great
but what goes on there
the animals fate
sealed with arrogance
sealed with pain
corporate forgetfulness
it’s insane
pigs are sensitive
they cannot sweat
significantly they set a debt
tormented by the behaviour here
in their souls just rampant fear
how they squeal the days away
and rapidly they just decay
worse than swill. And
