Shows"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>We exist in actuality<br \/>\nUndeniably<br \/>\nEnduring and well grounded<br \/>\nFlesh and blood<br \/>\nWe be<br \/>\nAnimals<br \/>\nThat human beings<br \/>\nUse captivity<br \/>\nFear and farming methods<br \/>\nAs a philosophy<\/p>\n<p>Together we all represent<br \/>\nThe Meat Trade YES on show<br \/>\nYou bring your children<br \/>\nTo pet us, and, aome of you know<br \/>\nWe have been shipped to where ever<br \/>\nBy truck some a long way<br \/>\nThrown in and neither fed nor watered<br \/>\nProbably all day<\/p>\n<p>Put in open pens of straw<br \/>\nTied up to the bars<br \/>\nUnder a hot sun perhaps<br \/>\nAnd we are seeing atars<br \/>\nFear has really got to us<br \/>\nThe noises all about<br \/>\nAnd all the many people<br \/>\nLeaving us in doubt<\/p>\n<p>Breathing isnt easy<br \/>\nWe are fearful you can see<br \/>\nCows are overheating<br \/>\nDonkeys too they be<br \/>\nTied up very painfully<br \/>\nAnd sheep are tied up too<br \/>\nAnd children come and punch and pull<br \/>\nAnd torment yes they do<\/p>\n<p>We are living beings<br \/>\nOur constitution sure<br \/>\nWe have hearts and minds like you<br \/>\nAnd truly we abhor<br \/>\nAny form of captivity<br \/>\nAnd non fulfilment we<br \/>\nOfcourse embrace the positive<br \/>\nBut your negativity<\/p>\n<p>We want to be excluded<br \/>\nRepressed as we all are<br \/>\nLeft in a chaotic state<br \/>\nConfused for you do scar<br \/>\nOur being in so many ways<br \/>\nYouthful is our lot<br \/>\nHaving to undergo such torture<br \/>\nAnd a continued plot<\/p>\n<p>Its all about productivity<br \/>\nAnd how we all must grow<br \/>\nWe have no fields to walk in<br \/>\nJust concrete sheds we know<br \/>\nThe chemicals you dose us with<br \/>\nAnd the drugs too have to be<br \/>\nEaten and the water too<br \/>\ntreated chemically<\/p>\n<p>We all face the vehemence<br \/>\nThe roughhouse treatment we<br \/>\nAre guinea pigs in many ways<br \/>\nA lot of brutality<br \/>\nWe are chiefly females<br \/>\nHaving to undergo<br \/>\nRape kidnap and slaughter<br \/>\nAnd hormones to make us grow<\/p>\n<p>There is no moderation<br \/>\nIts stress all of our days<br \/>\nThats our vulnerability<br \/>\nRelocation bays<br \/>\nAnd great huge trucks<br \/>\nLive export maybe so<br \/>\nOr transfer to some abattoir<br \/>\nWhere death comes as you know<\/p>\n<p>Religion plays a big part<br \/>\nHalal and kosher where<br \/>\nThey just slash our throat away<br \/>\nAnd we bleed out, the despair<br \/>\nNo stunning just one moment<br \/>\nAlive and feeling well<br \/>\nAnd a huge knife comes across ones neck<br \/>\nAnd ofcourse you enter HELL<\/p>\n<p>THis is what our world has come to<br \/>\nThis is what you do<br \/>\nTake us to these market places<br \/>\nSo we are on view<br \/>\nTouched and kicked and petted<br \/>\nAnd stared at every day<br \/>\nThen shipped off to some death house<br \/>\nTo  be murdered right a way<\/p>\n<p>At arrival the revulsion<br \/>\nIts repellant to be<br \/>\nForced down chutes to meet ones death<br \/>\nWith electrodes painfully<br \/>\nSticking into our backs<br \/>\nWe are made to run and be<br \/>\nIn the mood for murder<br \/>\nMurder painfully<\/p>\n<p>We can hear the screaming<br \/>\nWe can smell the fear<br \/>\nWe all would  wish to now escape<br \/>\nTo just getbout from here<br \/>\nBut we are all your prisoners<br \/>\nReady for the chop<br \/>\nReady to be tortured<br \/>\nWhen the truck does stop<\/p>\n<p>Animal life the human way<br \/>\nIs awful in the extreme<br \/>\nAll of our bio energy<br \/>\nOur allotted span a dream<br \/>\nWe have an inborn  viableness<br \/>\nWhich is taken away by you<br \/>\nBecause you want to fill your guts<br \/>\nWith us we know thats true<\/p>\n<p>Chomp down on our muscles<br \/>\nOur eyes balls and our backside<br \/>\nIt is made into sausages<br \/>\nWith eggs all you denied<br \/>\nThat you eat all our smelly bits<br \/>\nBut actually you do<br \/>\nThe butchers and the markets<br \/>\nThey feed us all to you<\/p>\n<p>It is the greater holocaust<br \/>\nAnd  it happens every day<br \/>\nGassing<br \/>\nslicing through our throats<br \/>\nCutting our trachea away<br \/>\nRemoving our legs before we are dead<br \/>\nThat is what you do<br \/>\nLeave us hanging bleeding out<br \/>\nWhat an abyssmal crew<\/p>\n<p>The agricultural show<br \/>\nBring the kids they say<br \/>\nCome see the sacrificial lambs<br \/>\nYes do come today<br \/>\nProd and kick and pull their skin<br \/>\nMake them realise<br \/>\nThey are purely fodder<br \/>\nIn their parents eyes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We exist in actuality Undeniably Enduring and well grounded
