Poems of compassion dedicated to the non-human animals who share this planet
with us and the people who fight for them.
“Ask the animals and they will teach you; the birds of the air, and they will tell you… and the fish of the sea will declare to you…” (Job 12:7-8)
“I am he
as you are he
as you are me
and we are all together…
Corporation…stupid…
…bloody Man, you been a naughty boy…
I am the walrus…
I'm crying,
I'm crying
I'm crying,
I'm crying…
…dripping
from a dead dog's
eye.”
I Am The Walrus, Lennon-McCartney, 1967
