Innovator Captivates

Improvements fuse to Inventor's efforts
       Nous flowers to dissect design
       Nurturing device surpasses old methods


       Onerous abattoir livestock conclusion
       Vexes an astutely tuned mind
       Amplifies ideas for far kinder solution 


       Thoughtful additions shifts boxes existing
       Overhauls, rough edges refined
       Regulates treatment within meat industry  


       Considers fixes to infrequent quandaries
       Aptitude reaches each dimension 
       Pragmatic contraption, rapid responsive


       Tirelessly hones entire bovine benevolence
       Inspects with scrupulous attention 
       Verifies every integral nut bolt's relevance


       Accolades awarded by national dignitaries 
       Tribute Stealth slaughter invention 
       Essential kills occur unforeseen, soft, swiftly


          Success above fitter turner veterans, 
                     his brain superlative

Heya Sigrid, your tribute poem to Robert Haworth is quite astounding and probably unique, I never heard of him, but I did work in abattoirs from my teenage years to early 20s, and anyone that spares the suffering of these animals deserves every accolade they get, I witnessed some terrible unnecessary suffering because of the antiquated systems in place were I worked, I think most of them are closed down now, and quite rightly so, I enjoyed reading your work, cheers David
