Under the sea<\/p>\n
on coral \u00a0islands<\/p>\n
freedom a birth rite<\/p>\n
caught and now stashed<\/p>\n
on slabs and wrapped<\/p>\n
in plastic for sale<\/p>\n
these living crabs<\/p>\n
its as if they are in gaol<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
under the plastic<\/p>\n
sure they are hoping<\/p>\n
to live without air<\/p>\n
and to try and escape<\/p>\n
their claws might just free them<\/p>\n
their eyes might just see them<\/p>\n
sideways escaping<\/p>\n
freedom possibly<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
mongers of sea souls<\/p>\n
packed in this plastic<\/p>\n
on ice and with salt<\/p>\n
That\u2019s what they do<\/p>\n
sell crabs at retail<\/p>\n
in markets wet<\/p>\n
so many killed this way<\/p>\n
Their short lives are set<\/p>\n
