The Hunt
Listen to poem:
Im the ginger ninja of the countryside
Oh why did god make me ginger ?
was he was having a laugh.
I am the fox.
I sulk between hedgerows
and raid chicken coups.
Unseen yet hunted for fun.
My fur looks better on me
than any woman.
Wear your own skin, I say !.
I am the fox.
Pursued and persecuted.
Horses, Men and dogs run me to ground.
The race of my life they catch me I die.
For food ? no just fun.
My cubs orphaned.
So you can have a days SPORT.
I am the fox.
