DUBAI.<\/p>\n<p>The oil revenues that bolstered this place<br \/>\nHave more or less gone<br \/>\nIts extremes though now grace<br \/>\nThe capital  city with<br \/>\nExcess  and more<br \/>\nThe most populous city<br \/>\nAnd everyones sure<\/p>\n<p>Its now about tourism<br \/>\nAnd real estate<br \/>\nAbout  aviation<br \/>\nIts got to be great<br \/>\nIts a global city<br \/>\nAnd ofcourse what we see<br \/>\nIs an air conditioned<br \/>\nChlorinated bath tub<br \/>\nWhere we<br \/>\nCan watch captured dolphins<br \/>\nAnd captured fur seals<br \/>\nPerforming their tricks<br \/>\nTo the cretinous squeals<\/p>\n<p>Outside it is hot<br \/>\nIt was desert before<br \/>\nThe victims from Russia<br \/>\nTheir deal was raw<br \/>\nThere is no understanding<br \/>\nCompassion is not<br \/>\nOn the agenda<br \/>\nSo they havent got<\/p>\n<p>Freedom at all<br \/>\nJust a circus of fear<br \/>\nTotally alien<br \/>\nThat much is clear<br \/>\nThey have thrown lots of money<br \/>\nBut what do we see<br \/>\nNothing thats real<br \/>\nThere is no harmony<\/p>\n<p>These poor captured dolphins<br \/>\nCan now interact<br \/>\nWith humans so swimming<br \/>\nAnd dancing its  packed<br \/>\nInto their regimen<br \/>\nDay after day<br \/>\nIts numbing and awful<br \/>\nIn every way<\/p>\n<p>People who go there<br \/>\nAre ignorant, they<br \/>\nKnow nothing of animal rights<br \/>\nThey just pay<br \/>\nThey just want<br \/>\nThey dont care about dolphins<br \/>\nThe show<br \/>\nMust go on and go on<br \/>\nSo the bums on seats know<\/p>\n<p>Lives turned upside down<br \/>\nIts totally hell<br \/>\nThey never eat fresh<br \/>\nThey never feel well<br \/>\nDosed up on drugs<br \/>\nThey live and they play<br \/>\nIn the same water<br \/>\nThey have every day<\/p>\n<p>There is no life energy<br \/>\nOutside the sun<br \/>\nBeats from the heavens<br \/>\nIt really can stun<br \/>\nThe western visitors<br \/>\nSo cetaceans and seals<br \/>\nYou can just imagine<br \/>\nHow all of that feels<\/p>\n<p>Artificiality<br \/>\ngets into your bones<br \/>\nIt feels chaotic<br \/>\nIn all of those zones<br \/>\nBreathing that air<br \/>\nMarshalled all day<br \/>\nFrom freedom to slavery<br \/>\nJust in a day<\/p>\n<p>All sorts of bodies close up<br \/>\nTheir smells<br \/>\nTheir cloying hands<br \/>\nIt really  tells<br \/>\nOn the sensitive creatures<br \/>\nWho just have to be<br \/>\nClose up and hating<br \/>\nThe prolonged symphony<\/p>\n<p>Highly paid trainers<br \/>\nWith so little sense<br \/>\nEncouraging dolphins<br \/>\nWho have no defence<br \/>\nWho know all the moves<br \/>\nThey are natural, but they<br \/>\nAre trained to leap skywards<br \/>\nOn command and to pay<\/p>\n<p>Attention to what<br \/>\nthey are basically told<br \/>\nTo be fed on dead fish<br \/>\nSmelly and  cold<br \/>\nIts the repetition<br \/>\nThe stammering way<br \/>\nFor each performance<br \/>\nAll through the day<\/p>\n<p>Dolphins are highly intelligent<br \/>\nSouls<br \/>\nIt becomes tedious<br \/>\nThey have no goals<br \/>\nNothing is natural<br \/>\nJust leaping about<br \/>\nFor dead fish rewards<br \/>\nIt is a rout<\/p>\n<p>There is no stimulation<br \/>\nThe dynamics not there<br \/>\nThere is no excitement<br \/>\nNo play they can share<br \/>\nIts all regimented<br \/>\nAnd very intense<br \/>\nAnd in a nutshell<br \/>\nIt just makes no sense<\/p>\n<p>On the Persian Gulf<br \/>\nThe UAR<br \/>\nThis great business hub<br \/>\nWhich is where they are<br \/>\nArrogance reigns<br \/>\nAnd ignorance too<br \/>\nAnd the victims are the dolphins<br \/>\nAnd the seals<br \/>\nWhich is true<\/p>\n<p>Tourism you can just<br \/>\nFeel the great buzz<br \/>\nIts all rather virulent<br \/>\nAnd infact does<br \/>\nReally get to you<br \/>\nSo the dolphins must be<br \/>\nStressed out of their minds<br \/>\nTo a violent degree<\/p>\n<p>People are booking their holidays<br \/>\nThere<br \/>\nBuying the tickets<br \/>\nExpecting to share<br \/>\nTheir space and their skin<br \/>\nAnd their soul<br \/>\nAnd their all<br \/>\nAnd the dolphins are stuck<br \/>\nIn their watery stall<\/p>\n<p>There is no vitality<br \/>\nNo vital force<br \/>\nAs to longevity<br \/>\nIts a hard course<br \/>\nTheir allotted span<br \/>\nWho can now  say<br \/>\nHow long they will last<br \/>\nAt the end of the day<\/p>\n<p>We are all so unfair<br \/>\nWe are not human kind<br \/>\nWe are truthfully unthinking<br \/>\nLosing our mind<br \/>\nNeanderthal thoughts<br \/>\nIn a modern day scene<br \/>\nThe scenario hellish<br \/>\nFor them it has been<\/p>\n<p>An unnatural happening<br \/>\nIncarceration<br \/>\nNo social order<br \/>\nAnd  no salvation<br \/>\nOutside a furnace<br \/>\nInside the air<br \/>\nJust artificial<br \/>\nAnd no one to care<\/p>\n<p>Can we appeal to tourism here<br \/>\nThe trip advisors<br \/>\nAnd others its clear<br \/>\nThey too are drunk on the money they make<br \/>\nIts all about profit<br \/>\nFor profits sake<\/p>\n<p>And the victims all suffer<br \/>\nA fate worse than death<br \/>\nIts like a psychodrama<br \/>\nBegging for breath<br \/>\nNo honest thoughtfulness<br \/>\nJust sophistry<br \/>\nIrrational behaviour<br \/>\nAn irrelevancy<\/p>\n<p>My heart goes out to these 5 slave dolphins and the 4 slave fur seals<br \/>\nWho are there
