We learn to use the skin of animal earthlings
\nsome realise the error of their ways
\nI haven’t worn a leather belt or leather shoes for 40 years
\nWearing vegan shoes it always pays
\nThe majority wear leather though they think its smart
\nDead skin draped about them they will not part
\nThat some poor cow was slaughtered in the process they don’t care
\nThat its skin was torn off whilst it hung up on a hook, aware
\nOf what the man below it was then doing
\nThe abject agony of that slow death
\nWhen you just tear a small strip from off a finger
\nYou know how sore that is you hold your breath
\nThat poor cow and the millions that are slaughtered and have this torture done to them each day
\nIts beyond words and no sentient creature should ever put up with this
\nSo human beings can look in the mirror and say
\nDon’t I look a treat in my new Jacket
\nor doesn’t these new shoes look really cool
\nIn fact when you consider what you are wearing
\nPersonally I think your a bloody fool
\nCruelty is what the trade is all about
\nthe animals gets short shrift as you can see
\nThe workers mostly poor Indian women
\nworking in the awful tannery
\nStand up to their waists, in the most obnoxious chemicals and die for sure before their 35
\nThe chemicals then spew into the rivers into where people live and won’t survive.
\nDon’t you look just wondderful in your new skirt
\nAnd doesn’t that new handbag look a treat
\nand that new sofa sitting in the living room
\nI’m sorry to say its as bad as eating meat.<\/div>\n

The trade in leather(dead treated skin) is terrible.There are many materials that clothes and shoes and car seats and sofa’s can be made of rather than dead skin, I urge you all to change to shop at vegan shoes in Brighton and to avoid leather clothing at all cost Continue reading →<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-492","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-animal-rights","category-poems"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/492","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=492"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/492\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":494,"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/492\/revisions\/494"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=492"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=492"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cooksdelight.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
