STUPID PAMELA-YOU SHOULDN'T BE SLACKING

[a black rabbit dies for it's country]-by gavin ewart

born in the lab, i never saw the grass
or felt the direct touch of wind or sun
and if a rabbit's nature is to runfree on earth, i missed it: though the glass
never let shot shoot or predators pass

while i was warm against my mother's side
something was waiting in the centrifuge
(the world's a cage, although the cage is huge)
and separate i lived til i died-
watered and fed, i didn't fret, inside

and all the time i was waiting for the paste,
scooped with a spatula from the metal rim,
the concentrate bacillus at the brim,
and lived the life of feeling and taste,
i didn't know it. knowing would be a waste,

in any case, and anthrax is the hard
stuff that knocks out the mice, the dogs, the men,
you haven't any chance at all when
they've finished with you, you're down on a card
how could i know to be upon my guard

when they pushed the container into line,
with the infected air stream? breath is life:
though something more deadly than a knife
cut into me, i was still feeling fine,
and never guessed the next death would be mine-

how many minutes later lungs would choke
as feet beat out the seconds like a drum,
hands held me on the table: this was a sum
with the predictable ending of a joke
fighting i died, and no god even spoke

[the bettery hen]-by pam ayres

oh i am a battery hen
on me back theres not a germ
i never scrathched a farmyard
and i never pecked a worm
i never had the sunshine
to warm me feathers through
eggs i lay everyday
for the likes of you

when you has them scrambled
piled up on your plate
its me what you should thank for that
i never lays them late
i always lays them reg'lar
i always lays them right
i never lays them brown
i always lays them white

but its no life for a battery hen
in me box im sat
a funnel stuck out from the side
me pellets come down that
i gets a squirt of waterevery half a day
watchin with me beady eye
me eggs roll away

i lays them in a funnel,
strategically placed,
so that i don't kick 'em,
and let them go to waste,
they rolls off down the tubing,
and up the gangway quick,
sometimes i gets to thinkin'
"that could've been a chick!"

i might have been a farmyard hen,
scratchin' in the sun,
there might have been a crowd of chicks,
after me to run,there might have been a cockerel fine,
to pay us his respects
instead of sittin' here
till someone comes and wrings our necks.

i see the time and motion clock,
is sayin' nearly noon,
i 'spec me squirt of water,
will come flyin' at me soon
and then my spray of pellets,
will nearly break my leg,
and i'll bite the wire nettin'
and lay one more bloody egg.

imagine each phrase being typed out at least five times each and you'll see how much i typed ): but im so proud of me, i actually managed to remember all this (:
but now, i have to memorize the feelings parts and the more important quotes that i can use ): i want to sleep!! ):
