BLOOD SPORTS

BLOODSPORTS

The despicable in pursuit of the defenceless

They claim it as a right to maim and kill
Resplendent in red riding coats
Galloping over fields through woods
Horn blaring ridding after baying hounds.

They say fox, hare and deer enjoy the chase
And the kill is swift and clean
But how can death by dogs ripping living flesh
Be anything but a sport of the insane?

The despicable in pursuit of the defenceless...I seriously admire your work. I went through your poems and couldn't resist my self from commenting on your excellent art. Your poems make a huge impact if carefully followed with an honest heart.

I like the natural flow and the choice of words in your poems. Keep writing!

good poam nothing should be killed in sport only in need and no human being should kill another in mind, heart, body, or soul but to kill the soul is worse then to kill the body
