PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

mouths ripped by bits

flanks pierced by kicks

scars from boot spurs 

stung by the whips

branded

castrated

broken necks in horse races

while they look on bettors' faces

pulling crushing loads

in bullfights gored

dying in stable fires

dying of hunger

neglected ignored

driven into rivers in which they drown

falling down mountainsides

goaded to heart attack deaths

gamblers poison their insides

confined in barn stalls

smashed by Central Park cars

in wars blown apart

by cruel Bonapartes

sometimes shipped to 20 

barnhomes before their deaths

by Zinke's BLM helicopters hunted

before slaughtered for meat
