BRIAN & ANGELA

ODE TO A BATTERY HEN !

 

BATTERY HEN UNIT IN GERMANY !

 

IF YOU are really Naughty

And break rules NOW & THEN

You\'ll be reincarnated 

As a poor old Battery Hen !

 

Now Hens are lovely creatures

They start out as little Chicks

Cute yellow balls of fluff ~ that strut

And do a thousand tricks !

 

When it\'s reincarnation time 

Do not be deluded ~ never tick

The box marked \"CHICK\"

Cos \"Battery Hens\" included !

 

Once you\'re past the Chicken stage 

You\'re in for a shock 

They stick you in a tiny cage 

You never see the COCK !

 

They clip your wings and tie your legs

You cannot FLY or STRUT

Your only role is LAYING EGGS

The nice \"Free Range\" is SHUT !

 

You LAY until your dying day

Sad and emaciated

Don\'t even become a Sunday Lunch

Neck wrung AND then cremated !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN

 

Only buy \"Free Range Eggs\" better still keep CHUCKS

in your own Backyard and give them plenty of TLC !

You never know one might be your GRANNY ~ XOXOX
