Sheepskin, Pigskin, Deerskin
By Anonymous, from Animal Rights Online

A sheepskin is not a sign
of learning
but of the abuse of sheep.
A pigskin is not a sign
of sportsmanship
but of a people and pig
abusing sport.
A deerskin is not a sign
of peace.. but of violence
to the innocent.
A cowskin on the seats
.. is a sign of unconscious
brutality to cows,
whose names God knows
