Creature Karma

On the news was a man beating his cattle It sickens me so this ongoing battle For a human to hurt a helpless creature Is so disgusting,our very worst feature Saw a man kicking his dog one time To me he'd committed a horrible crime That poor pup hung his head and cowered I screamed at the man and he just glowered Like I was the one who was doing wrong But he felt my glare as he moved along And drowning kittens puts me in a fury For this I will be judge and jury Making dogs fight to the death I get so angry I lose my breath Bullfights in Spain just seem so cruel Seems we forgot the golden rule Another take on that phrase might say Do evil to animals and you'll pay! It might sound harsh but I don't care I think swift justice is only fair We share this world with them,it's true And karma applies to animals too *for Catie Lindseys "Outrageous" contest

Cruelty to animals IS outrageous, Deb. A lot of folks will back you on this proposition. Karma should apply to all of God's creatures. Well done! Best wishes in the contest. Love, Carolyn
