Don'T Boil Me For Mere Clothing Says Silkworm
Mulberry-leaf-munching moth pupa
spins silk to make the cocoon
for its transformation into its adult form
as a winged moth.
Pupa in the cocoon is
excited it will fly soon
Ten more days to go
It will fly and go
Joyous and happy it lays
Dreaming of future days
Heartless man picks it up
Drops it in boiling water
Takes out its threads
Makes clothing out of it
It is boiled alive for money and clothing!
People pay huge money buy, flaunt silk clothes
No one thinks how the cloth is manufactured
Even those who do, don't care about the silk worm
Why are humans so heartless
To kill instantly and eat is understandable
To boil alive for clothing, earning ??????......
All those who extract silk from silk worm should be boiled in hot water
And their body parts used for unnecessary purposes
Maybe then they will understand
Or maybe still they won't!
For humans are by nature most heartless of all living organisms
Our heartlessness knows no bounds.
Our selfishness has no limits.
We get back what we give state scriptures
For all that humans are doing what they will get back
I shudder to think
God please give some humanness to humans

Note : According to PETA aproximately 3000 worms are killed to make one pound of silk. Say no to silk.
