Cruelty


 

How could you dare eat that meat?

Animals have feelings too; just like us

How would you feel if you also got beat?

Just like a mime, they never make a fuss

They are Ugly Betty; no one does care

People sit back and devour their food

Animals have no choice; does it seem fair?

I believe that the correct term is rude

They never thought how it got on their plate

Their mothers should label them a disgrace

By the time that they realize, it is too late

Have you ever truly looked at their face?

Loneliness, you will see, but you may doubt

An animal, just waiting to get out
