Charity begins at home
\n“Tiger tops” by another name
\nOrganising tournaments
\nPolo its the given game
\nThailand watch the pachyderms
\nMahouts riding them about
\nSticks and stones hurt all our bones
\nBashing them leaves me in doubt<\/p>\n
Cruelty does nothing for
\nApproval ratings none at all
\nAnimals were never born
\nTo acceot abuse
\nIts no golden goose
\nIt discredits all who call<\/p>\n
It shows a lack of intelligence
\nAnd imbecility
\nTo watch wild elephants broken
\nIts thoughtless its inanity
\nCorporate misjudgement
\nBy association you
\nWho promote such sporting candour
\nAre abusers too<\/p>\n
Sponsoring such evil
\nNegates the reasons why
\nIt should be in the affirmative
\nIt has to underlie
\nAll things good and wonderful
\nNot this mendacity
\nElephants being beaten
\nTill they wince exhaustingly<\/p>\n
The companies lending their names
\nShowing their hypocrisy
\nReally its sharp practice
\nIts a swizzle actually
\nIts seen as a perversion
\nTheir names seen in false light
\nFlatteringly disgraceful
\nMore than an oversight<\/p>\n

\nOn facebook too I hear
\nElephants being seen in pain
\nAnd not a modicum of cheer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
