The Greatest Gift


Care, care for our fellow beings

Help those who are suffering

Refuse to buy dead turkeys, geese, ducks and pigs

In bloody “blankets”

Speak out, save, campaign

To liberate the trembling terrified

Monstrously mass murdered at 6 months for

A single day of Godless gorging and stuffing

Sense their pain, their awareness, their brilliance… their loveliness
