A huge lake of bodies
\nA wretched lagoon
\nThousands and thousands
\nOf Sheep
\nAnd quite soon<\/p>\n
The heat and the voyage
\nAnd lack of real food
\nAnd water, will harm them
\nThis is so crude<\/p>\n
How can this continue
\nThis is obscene
\nAustralian Exporters are
\nReally mean
\nThe voyage is terrible catastrophe
\nAnd when Bahrain rejects them
\nAnd they cannot get free
\nAnd Pakistan takes them
\nWhat is the bet
\nOf making Karachi
\nWill it be set<\/p>\n
Fine to continue
\nThis atrocity
\nThis shameless journey
\nIt should never be
\nSo many lost in a voyage
\nOf great pain
\nWhere wickedness rules
\nThough never again<\/p>\n
Should these rules be broken
\nShould animals be
\nShipped on long voyages
\nIt’s insanity
\nIt’s so cruel to do this
\nThis sad oddity
\nThe vile repetition
\nContinuously<\/p>\n
It’s just endless
\nTerror
\nAnd immensity
\nA timeline that stretches
\nDiabolically
\nI’ll-timed ill advised
\nWho dares understand
\nIt’s, so unsuited
\nFor sheep to be there
\nUnder the sun
\nIn the hottest of air<\/p>\n
Clouds of black flies
\nArrest and fight shy
\nWhat a catastrophe the temperature high
\nObsessive and haunting
\nRuggedly they
\nLook so deflated
\nAnd ready to pay<\/p>\n
Australian Farmers what do they care
\nThey have had their money
\nThey may be aware
\nBut out of sight out of mind really
\nThat’s how it goes
\nLifelessness beckons and how<\/p>\n
The storm clouds had shaken
\nThe turmoil was there
\nIn the holds they were
\nDocked, they were shocked
\nThey surged forward
\nMany were knocked
\nFrightened and sad
\nIt was quite grim
\nAs for the chance of new life
\nThat was slim <\/p>\n
Australian Exports
\nHow can they be
\nContinued I mean to say
\nImmensity of anger and pity and selfish
\nRefrain
\nWhy does it happen again and again
\nWhy do they undergo torment for they
\nAre truthfully suffering
\nEvery day
\nA lagoon. Of bodies
\nSweating in distress
\nAnd nobody any where
\nSeems to care less<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
