Together we can create a kinder world for animals, <br />All creatures great and small nay, <br />Why should we look the other way? <br />We hear the cry to save the whales <br />Now cry for animals with little tails. <br />Before little piggy goes to market on his last day <br />Give lots of freedom and fields of play <br />For piggies born in battery sheds <br />Damn it they can’t even turn their heads. <br />Under the shade of an old gum tree <br />A little lamb bows his head to pray to thee <br />Dear god I’m not the black sheep or a snarling beast <br />I gave gold to this land straight off my back you see <br />I hear I ‘m going on a sailing trip to the middle east <br />Packed live in a hold with thousands like me <br />A wise old cow told me it’s for religious sacrifice <br />Oh dear god I’m a believer a true believer <br /> I believe, I believe the wise old cow I’m the sacrifice <br />I know that baa baa black sheep is just a fable and <br />Know that we are meant for the human table but <br />All I ask is dignity in our short life <br />To live it without inhumane strife <br /> <br />Then when I go to heaven for my last supper to sup, <br />My dear lord so bold, <br />Can I be reborn a beautiful horse winning the Melbourne Cup? <br />With adulation untold - <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Australian Live sheep export to the middle east is a humane disgrace <br />for the festival of sacrifce.Video's of sheep throne into car boots, <br />lines if a dozen sheep feet tied laid on their side next to a blood drain <br />ready to have their throats cut-<br /><br />Ken e Hall<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dignity-an-animals-dream/
