Korean Death Row
By C. Sparkie
An Animal Rights Poem from All-Creatures.org

All of God's creatures have rights, a fact that most people don't seem to recognize. This includes both human and non-human animals, but not all of them can speak for themselves.

Korean Death Row

Feelings of guilt
I am free
You, tied and choking
Dangle from tree

Life blood beaten
from you every night
Cries tear our hearts
We know it's not right

We try to save you
you do not know
Much is involved
We love you so

There are many
disturbed like me
Imagine a dog
dangling from a tree

Caught in a time warp
won't let me go
rescue the dogs
on Korean Death Row.
