Poems of compassion dedicated to the non-human animals who share this planet
with us and the people who fight for them.
Spring, the time of birth!
And what do we humans do?
We kill the new born…
Ewes suckle their lambs,
as cooks prepare Easter roasts
- of quivering flesh.
We marvel at LIFE
…yet Pass Over our cruelty:
Death cult devourers.
We pray for mercy
- but show none to our brothers.
Blind hypocrisy.
Little lamb, who made thee?
Thou dost know who made thee.
Little lamb, God bless thee.
Little lamb, God bless thee.
