Illusion
With the assurance of the horse of progress
Galloping along this way
The streets by the gateways have been straightened as arrows
Widened and made spacious
Concreted
It is the black eyes with your sweet smile that pierces my heart.
That bold accent that takes me to the clouds and leaves me to the ground.
I have never found my taste and crown in any woman.
It is the black eyes with your sweet smile that pierces my heart.
That bold accent that takes me to the clouds and leaves me to the ground.
I have never found my taste and crown in any woman.
It is the black eyes with your sweet smile that pierces my heart.
That bold accent that takes me to the clouds and leaves me to the ground.
Sitting behind the bars all day
While wondering if all this waiting would pay
So many new visitors pass by.
When all in all I want is the freedom of mine
I miss my family and my friends
Through time and space
The Earth has its place
Among the stars and moon
And the Sun that will rise soon
As it goes round and round
It will whisper with it's own sound
There are other planets too
Man has traveled on the Earth for centuries and years
While it cried a million tears
As it took its flight
During the day and night
Through time and space it was hurled
Yet it is a beautiful world
Man has traveled on the Earth for centuries and years
While it cried a million tears
As it took its flight
During the day and night
Through time and space it was hurled
Yet it is a beautiful world
As I lay my head to sleep
In the darkest so deep
I do not see the moon or a single star
And I wonder where they are
Do they slumber too
To rise again on the next night so new
Oh, Alba, my sweet puppy,
How I miss your wagging tail,
Your playful bark, your silly jumps,
And the love that we would share.
why can't you see the life in my eyes?
why can't you see the tears flowing down?
whe can't you be nice
why
why
why?
why can't you just hold me, and cuddle
and stroke my furr?
With one feet inside her nest
And one feet outside, following the dotted line
THERE is a STILLNESS AS IF
WAITING FOR THE DAWN
Ferdinand
Oh dear Ferdinand,
What have you done wrong?
Sharp blades are there
Brutality is everywhere
Blood is shed
I don’t understand my little friend
Dança, dança vagaluz,
Vaga luz na escuridão.
Vaga, vaga, vagabunda luz.
Vagabundo vagaluz, vagabundo lume vaga só.
Mas se andam muitos vagaluzes,
Soltos na escuridão,
Iluminam nosso caminhar,
Your calming noisesYour soft, soothing furYou have always been there for meand I will always be there for you
The thoughtthat anyonecould hurt you…
Breaks my heart.
As vibrant as a summers glow
As tough as woodchippers blade
As soft as a silk woven robe
But not as limited as a cloth but rather….
As intricate as persian rug
A gentle and kind creature,
Curled up beside me.
A loyal companion,
A best friend.
An innocent being,
Sentient and kind.
Winston My cat, appearing on this page.
Is only one, a youngish age,
The very coy-est of the coy,
Needless to say, it’s a boy.
If you can't "Ribbit,"
Or play leap frog,
Answer the riddles,
Of the frogs on this log!
1. What type of shoe do frogs wear?
2 Why are frogs rarely angry?
The moon was out and I saw some sheep.
I saw some sheep take a walk in their sleep.
By the light of the moon, by the light of a star,
They walked all night from near to far.
Hello I am currently a high school student and I am using this poem for my folio piece, feedback would be much appreciated although I am unsure if it is possible yet as this site is new to me but here goes
Look at that Chestnut,
His coat gleams in the morning dew,
Glazed in a sheet of dust,
He runs with spirit,
Will he ever stop?
He halts,
My guinea pigs I love you even in doubt
I feel like you know me inside and out
You help me in all emotions especially now
You do so much and just, wow

A virtual color to discuss, I wish today
Asked someone, is it a color? Says Nay
Thoughts provocation has taken in mind the war-form
Arranging them in rhymes while continue to roam
Neither justice overtake us: we wait for light but behold obscurity for brightness but we walk in darkness
One, Two, Three, Four
wait a minute shouldn't there be two more
I search and I search
Not a single scent in sight
A howl rings through the forest
D
Daddy’s an asshole
Momma’s a bitch
Don’t dare complain
Afraid of that switch .
Can’t help dreaming
I stop. A deer, dark and wise, stares at me with scared bright eyes. It’s a windy night, quite a fright, but the deer stares right at my headlight. I blink. He won’t move.
Love, what is love ?
Is it a person?
Is it a place?
Is it a thing ?
Can love be measured?
How do you know you don't have enough love?
Is love kind?
Is love gentle?
Is love beautiful?
Animals are bieng abused every day
Not being treated
Justly, fairly, or even kindly
Why do humans have to be cruel
Harsh, hurtful, vengeful
Why do some of us treat animals
The way we do
She was a little bundle of joy that I brought home
A week old Golden retriever with shining golden coat
Short ears, a straight muzzle, and a feathery tail
Why I named her Paris I had no particular reason?
Ease up on the Raid, I thought it was for insects.
People using it so sporadically, I see them use it right before sex.
I couldn'tbelieve my eyes. Was it perfume or a reason to cry?
The only slam matches we had were in hospital
Sectioned under the mental health act
for being too absorbed by our quirky Eccentricities.
Feed us up, 12 months in the slammer.
Medication
What a beautiful day it would be
The butterflies roam free
No one to chase thee
A world without humans
Oh, what a day
it's a blessing upon us all or so we say

I have a visitor who always stays depressed,
Cause she loves eating fish.
Breakfast,lunch or dinner you could find fish in every single dish.
She ate it grilled,spiced,curried or even boiled
Interference with nature on monetary remark,
tampering with creation and exposing man.
This is where it all began.
To prey on others is invitation for pain,
and an oath to eventual demise.

High bird
In the sky bird.
Down bird
Crowned bird
In the ground bird
Hop bird
Lace bird
Missing wings birds.
Welcome to my world or perhaps my heart,
That`s how most start, But in mine don`t you dare knock on that door,
But let me just tell you, welcome to darkness!
And in this ring called suffering,
The storm leaps around
it wanders everywhere
it runs fast like a monkey
and grabs everything around it
a banana from the tree
jessy 's umbrella and what not?
no one can control it
East or West, Home
Is the Best.
Take some Rest,
Don't call any Guest.
Enjoy your Home Fest,
Don't have an outgoing Zest
This is our life saving Test.
If I had a dime for every animal I currently own in my house, I’d be $1.10 richer. That's not a lot to most of us. Do you want to know what else isn't a lot?
They key to my future lies in the hands of the person I see in front.
The looking back at me.
The girl in the mirror.
This inspiration
It floats around in my head
Like thoughts on a train
It sits on a log
And thinks for a little while
The world embraces its boredom guise.
The sun rises and the sun sets.
Time goes by in the blink of an eye.
I remember the first day we got you. You came out from behind the couch with a toy and a smile. I would come cuddle with you and take you outside for walks. You always loved the snow and could roll around in it for hours.
The choice I make
They’re not always great
Bad intentions
Sometimes make you wait
Respect yourself, you’ll be great
Seconds away from a bad decision
Lead to your death, or land you in prison
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger
Stop & think just a little bit longer
My own death certificate won't be signed
Rise'n from there grave & all around
Shift in the ground, plus a horrible sound
This is what I've always feared the most
Have to be quiet, these demon's are close
Gotta get to where I'm going & get there fast
When they see you, they jump with joy
they say, "OH BOY!"
when you are sad, they come comfort you
when they are scared you comfort them
dogs will always be there
from here to there, to everywhere
Snowfall. Dawn.
Today’s a new day; I woke up under a tree.
I did not see it before, was used to being in cages
For the one in my company, I have nothing to bring,
My powerful wave form deemed fourth you all.
Volume was before nothing was then.
Now then first second third.
If you don't win you progression for results that strick you glorus.
You have not had to feel the pain
Been trapped in a place that does not feel like your home
Or talked at like you were nothing
You have not had to take the beatings
the squirrels like to give a chase,
Those bushy tail creatures always win the race,
they laugh in our face,
but us four legged creatures just like them still walk around with so much grace.
I imagine that a score ago I wouldn’t have been alive
And I have no recollection of what that life was like
Was I just nothingness waiting for the right time?
Probably.

The hunter went on a journey
To find some deer meat
He saw a buck and looked into his eyes
He saw a plea, the buck begging for his life
A doe and a fawn came from behind
Needing the buck in their lives.
Big brown eyes
Full of wisdom and pain from his past life
Lying on the dirt
He's witnessed many a fight
Survived weeks of starvation
His torn up old feet
A constant reminder of the losses been endured
I find myself saying "why do people eat animals?"
I find people telling me "you're vegatarian, why that has no benifit, the animal is already dead"
I find others also stating "you're not even helping the enivorment"
Clouds of dust swirl through the hot desert sky
The unforgiving sun radiating its disapproval
As the fearsome beast is brought to the ground
1Cerberus the dog with numerous-a-head and snakes for tails-wow!,
2How was he bred?,
Once while living peacefully the God of the Sea Poseidon heard something wrong in his ocean. After swimming miles upon miles he came upon sea turtles creating a cry for help.

Imagine being put on show
With a condition
You can’t control
The brain doesn’t fit
It’s equivalent to-
Squeezing size 10 feet
I like to look around.
round and round,I say
and spy all the colors
that my friends show off today.
Lots and lots of colors
like a rainbow of souls.
Bird to a bird
Have u any word
To say to the men
Whenever u have sin
Throw it to a bin
Fly with your fin
Oh, I live in a world
Where,each one have a murder
To save other, to save one's mother
Me with my home key
Can't avoid the suffer
To save the murder of any other
Reflection of colored sunglasses shades
mimic the iridescent colors on the feathers fade
bike horn honk pulled from your beak
awakes everyone surrounding as you try to speak
Walking down the stairs
Smells overwhelming
Sat down with ignorance
My plate full of innocence
They lived a happy life
Meant to be my sacrifice
Never questioning, mouth full of death
If I would have known
I would have stopped long ago
If only I was shown
The true horror occurring in the shadow
As I sit here in my home
Being me, I would say was the greatest thing,
Despite these days when I'm pained,
Back then I knew I could do anything,
These days I'm just watching the rain,
Used to spend hours and hours reading,
I think it all began when he started to get silent more often
My mama had always told me not to date
She said to wait until seventeen
To focus on my education so that I could graduate high school
We act like we want to make the world a better place
But we turn a blind eye to the problems that the animals face.
We love carriage rides,
A Girl's Best Friend
Dogs like this, dogs like that
Anyhow I love my pet
Very dark in complexion
I am Fear.
what lurks in the dark.
I am what you see in your nightmares.
What makes an elephant scared of a mouse.
No one is obliged to be near
you know you die alone
but you can sit in fear
And walk your own path
of greatness unknown
I LIVE IN MY JUNGLE, SO HARD AND SLENDER
IT'S ALL OF IT SAD AND GRAYS ITS DOORS...
AND YOU!!!!MY FRIEND ALTHOUGH BEAUTIFUL YOU SEE IT..
TO YOU I SAY THAT TO HER DO NOT COME ...
Do you see him cowering there in the corner?
His owner has beaten him, he’s falling apart.
Broken bones, it’s a cycle that never ends.
He whimpers. Will bad fortune ever bend?
Do you see her all alone?
The sun goes down
and I come out.
There is a black sky
so I can fly.
I take a flight
as I glide,
My new blanket is soft and warm,
though it is a bit worn
Maybe it’s because the animal that wore it as skin,
is now rotting away in a bin.
My father and I were sitting in a new restaruant
looking over the menus.
We loved to go to new places and try new foods.
I think it was one of the many reasons we got along so nicely.
Animals are all around us
Bees buzz from flower to flower
Cows roam the fields
Ducks travel throughout the ponds
Elephants walk the savannah
Frogs eat flies left and right
Goats hike the mountains
Animals deserve better then we
They existed first
Yet we treat them like garbage
To satisfy our sadistic thirst
The TV is muted when
That
Song
Comes on and no one stops to listen
Great things come and go, but
Right when you least expect it,
An animal is hurt, sick, or dying. Our
Friends work together to help them,
I stand before an empty enclosure,
Wishing that God would bring you back.
You did not deserve this,
Truly it was not your fault.
The reality is all too much.
Turtles
They spread their wings wide
Humans
Litter the ocean
Turtles
Wings don't spread wide
They die
Sharks eat turtles that can't spread their wings wide
Humans
These giants stand out on the great African Plains
But too often their motionless bodies lie on the ground surrounded by stains
Not taken for food they rot in the dust
The sun shines as God approaches,He leaves a beam of light in the dark forest.The beam of light brightens to a shape of a lion.God sent him to shimmer the forest to lustre;
In the Jungle, there is a mystery of darkness and wonders;
There is a war between a mighty beast and a man.
They kill for pleasure and for vengeance;
Little Boy
I lose myself
in thoughts of you
wonder quietly
whether your perception
of the intertwining of our lives
holds the same dear picture
that keep our memories alive
Doggies.
Very loyal.
They are human's prime friends.
Do not cause any harm to them.
Canines.
I’m okay for months,
not paying much attention to the
things that hurt
I have a wall up between me and words
The words barge into the wall, trying to
Who are you?
I do not know you.
I do not know you vile ways,The way you take pleasure in wounding me so.
i could wax lyrical poetry
about wanting,
but everyone does that
and i want to be
uncovnetional,
like a duck
Cheeseburger, steak, Chicken wings
The words that make mouths water
That make us run to the fridge
But what is inside that food?
The souls of the helpless animals
Their cries for help
Sad eyes and whimpering cries,
Questioning myself all these why’s.
Why do I have to abused?
I didn’t do anything wrong!
Why am I not loved?
I just want loved!
I want to tell you “I love you.”
To you it might not seem a lot
And to you he cannot give it thought
But for every little thing you do
He owes his entire world to you.
It's not for the faint of heart
It takes a special kind of madness
To tear a life apart
To hear the birds scream and cry
Fearing soon they too will die
It takes a special kind of madness

soft kitten fur against my baby cheek
puppies run to catch me by diaper
up high on horseback with mom behind me
kids and lambs nibble little ears
children soak up the world
Though you may be just a dog
You have been apart of my life for so long
Teaching me how to take care of another thing
And all the happiness you bring
Reminds me how impactful you have been
In a land where wolf and lamb shall graze together;
Where lions leave meat and eat straw like the oxen
Snatched from my home land,
Before I could understand
Away from my mother and brother
Never to see them again.
Freedom has expired
Onto the road of depravity
Also known as captivity
Tortured when still alive
Watching others scared for their life
I’ve travelled for miles
You crushed that ant and you crushed it’s whole life.
You killed the cow.
You murdered the fish.
You let the bird die.
You littered in their homes.
Turn up your music
Drown out their voice
Close your door
This is your choice
Listen to the lyrics
Can you hear the voice?
Walk towards your desk
Remember, this is your choice
Frantic wings beating blindly,
Bombarding the window pane.
Beak nimbly tap tap tap tapping the glass it doesn't see,
Jewel toned chest sparkling sapphire in the sunlight.
Life is like a Cherry Blossom Tree, it's beauty lasts only so long, it seems like only moments, you'll look away and they're gone.
Clumsily walking down the stairs,
Claws clacking on the wood,
He hears the food bowl ring as it is filled for the seventh time,
A sudden burst of energy and feast,
And back to sleep he goes
In possibly the brightest colors
Words have taught me many things
They help me through my hardest times
And remind me why the bluebird sings
Deep in the night,
we are silent
below the stars shining bright.
Our hearts pound
for words unsaid.
Our thoughts profound
run rampant in our head.
We’ve never told anyone
not even our own
A heartbreak is something we wish was rare
Relationships come & go as time passes by
Love is a nightmare
Aiming to prevent it will make you turn a blind eye
The pain is something you'd wish to erase
Push
the cheese through the
grater rather
than
shredding it back
and forth
like you always do.
Just jam it through
the grater
There is a facade, a thing you don't see
But here we're all stuck on "he" or "she"
And forget there is more than that to me.
I.
Dear Tesfaye,
I wish you didn’t have to grow up like this.
I wish there was more I could do to help.
You are only four,
still too young to fully understand.
Poverty
Dear Deer,
My deepest apologies for stopping you here.
I simply noticed something simple
Dearest Deer: so blue and bright,
Through the blackness of the night,
Pierce your dreaded, azure eyes,
to me, from the middle of the road.
You know who you areDon’t look away, don’t turn this page
You need to read this.
I love to smile,
A s much as fish loves dry land
M aking everyone else happy
S inging with a mute voice
We're living a silent violence Locked on everyone else's frustrations Afraid of climbing our own mountainsWe find peace in this violation We can't breath pure airIt stinks everywhere
Dear Giacomo,
Hairy and sweet
Big but timid
You have grown
Bit by bit
But still your heart
remains shy and loving
like a baby
I wish nobody
would ever hurt you
little pup
Dear Animals,
I’m sorry.
Sorry for that pain that I’ve caused
From your dying screams
To the melodic tapestry of a cheese tastery
Dear, …
I have been missing you, for the longest of times
A missing piece to my puzzle
I’ve hoped one day you’d return, you’d come back to my heart
Dear Vegetarians,
I am one of you.
A word that defines 4% of our youth
And only 3% of adults.
A definition that encompasses so much more
Remember when our minds confused the lines of right and wrong that lingered deep with you in our thoughts
Questioning our actions when sin tempted us to see the world threw a broken glass
Rusted, dirty kennels litter the floor
Their occupants gave up after mistreat and gore.
A tiny pair of eyes begging you to help
In the small room where all things yelp.
But those blue, brimming eyes
The bird in me
Recognizes the one inside you
Somewhere in a corner
...with tattered wings
...chained legs...
To my Freedom,
I first saw you
eyes troubled and body worn
but her spirit and age like new
so many failed before
but your fire was never torn
I first felt the same
There was once a man
A man of power but without sight
And without sight, without mind.
He held power, but without a mind.

The forest,
its filled with trees,
and bees,
they land on the flowers and the trees.
The forests,
its filled with animals,
and rivers,
they run through the trees.
The forest,
There goes the pitter-patter of tiny feet
Looking for something tasty to eat
Though they’re rooting through my food
Creatures.
Some are our pets
Who do deserve our love.
Adopt them to demonstrate that.
Creatures.
I continue circling
In my mind
In my thoughts
and in my head
Instead of sleeping in my bed
I continue circling
around the room
through the windows

From that warm feeling in your chest
to the "text me when you get home safe"
to the person who brings out your best
Fom the "I'm so proud of you"
to all the butterflies in your belly
Beautiful is your saying
When you say words of love and hope,
Beautiful is your behaving
When you behave well with all with love,
Beautiful is your doing
When you do well for all and all believe;
Every week the grass grows too long.

Our Love Can Bare (#BecauseILoveYou)
We respect, we trust, we love, we care
In the bond that we share.
Everyone thinks our love can bare
Her beautiful white hair,
Glistening gently from the suns rays.
Her childish and warming smile,
Always making my day.
She suffered many problems
As I watched it happen.
What is forgiveness?
Is it keeping calm and not holding a grudge
or is it getting mad and always wanting to judge
Should we forgive those who have done us wrong
or should we keep it in and let this prolong

The Ring Bros say they've quit.
Have they? What exactly have they quit?
The eye opening act of entertainment for The People. They say they've stopped.
It's defenitly a start. A good one.
As one domino falls
I love them so,
But it is hard
To love and know;
A moral shard.
I hate myself,
But can't let go
Of darling girls
What truth to show?
I wan't to tell,
The agonized wail
of a mourning mother
pulls me from my shell;
to my joy smothers
11 months, she carried you
and now you're gone
why they took you, I'll ever knew
I'll hum a sad song
The sound of growling crawls its way from
The dark of the forest, accompanied by
Faint, weak cries of hunger. A mother sets forth.
“There is no more time. With nearly
In the evening I went out,I stand in the balconyand see a swinging taleMoving repetitivelyI see an innocent face,Those poor eyes Speaking somethingWhile he kept my gazeThat tale didn't stop
Oh ~woe~ is me,
Poor ~little red hen~ with the grain that you found,
Nobody will help you put that seed in the ground.
Your feathers are bristled as you squawk and we gawk,
Once upon a time,
There was a little chicken,
Who thought life was sublime,
Till with fear he was stricken
He asked his mother,
“Where are you going?”
“Why are you leaving?”
Once upon a time
There was a little kitten
Who was very different
From the others in her litter
She was born in a barn
Once upon a time
I felt at odd with myself
I knew I had to change
I can’t keep on living like this
Darkness,
Sadness,
Once Upon a time there was a young child
the child was very young
he really liked to run
he started running from the fear
little did he know he was being chased by a bear
Down grape vine hill
Just by the old shop
But not quite the pasture
They sat there rusting
Their eyes fogged
Their color faded
By tiny cat paw prints
In the dust
There once was a fish named Larry
Unlike other fish, he was hairy.
With just one wish
This friendly fish
Only wanted to be imaginary.
'Twas the midnight raid of Peter Rabbit,
He wore his nice shoes and his brand new jacket.
Crept under the gate with hardly a sound,
Then cautiously, Peter looked all around.
Apparently, I am a big bad canine,
but that stereotype just ain't mine.
I didn't mean to scare those pigs,
maybe they shouldn't have made a house out of twigs.
I had a cold that day,
oh my dismay.
Once upon a time,
In a forest not far from here,
There lived a family of wolves,
Pack is the technical term,
Onecs in the red sun,
Little Red Riding Hood was heading out to her grandmother’s.
“Would you like me to come,” asked the mother.

Humpty Dumpty sat in a position of high power.

All the King's power and all the King's wealth,
Couldn't stop the people from stoning him to death.
My America, where I can't walk the streets
Alone at night because I am terrified
And whether it's the anxiety that 40 million
Of us exerience or the fact that
I could be attacked just because I
America, home of the brave,
Or that's the thing many used to say
And now people often have to pray
Begging God not to let it be their last day
Of all the people that look up at the news
I'm shaking and quaking
I don't know what to do.
I hear the steps coming closer,
which mean I'm closer to more abuse.
They hit,they smack,
they yell, they kick.
Theybe until I can't hardly stand.
I open my eyes and hear the streets of New York City
I look up to see only bystanders filled with pity
My daughter, she wakes up from her cardboard bed
She asks me when she'll be fed
"Soon baby" I said
Lord this is my last trip please forgive me for my sins
The sins of which I hold in my den
That has already grabbed me up by my chin
As if it was a sharks’ fin.
I’d rather die before I fake it
I know about love
I've seen its cold slobbering nose
pressed against the window
Waiting for me to come home
I know about love
I've felt it's warm soft tongue
Erasing the tears
From my cheeks
We cannot speak for ourselves
Everyday our kind is hurt in various ways
We have few that want to help
Many of you stand and watch us get beat
I cannot defend myself
The only good reason for self deprecation is in changing one’s character for the good of the nation
The wicked seeds of the past are sown into the soil of the future
Tying us to evil,
Three years, we are still together
You change my world
Bring happiness and joy
that I can never forget
O' Thorn, you are amazing
I love you and the furry skin you have
Now I appreciate the world
Instead of taking it for granted,
Now I work harder in school
Instead of thinking like a fool.
Now I can reach farther
Instead of making things harder.
January...jam, damn so much to fit in. How am I supposed to keep up with school and make new friends?
I was in a room all alone
With no one near by
I heard a sound
It was the rustling sound of the wind
I close my eyes
I hear foot steps
We're those footsteps coming near me?
I was not sure myself
Butterscotch colored bubbles clink in crystal glasses as ten seconds mark a genesis
Laughter, too loud, bounces like a ping pong ball between empty resolutions also too loud
I used to look up to you-
I used to be, “[your] little boy”
Then later I grew up and became “big red”
And since then there was a distance,
My childhood was full of dreams
Dreams that included a house full of dogs
And a yard full of livestock
I was devastated at age four
Shaping My Own View Imagery is very important asset in my life. Lyrically I can openly be expressive without words and that has been my safe place for years. Did you know colors represents different words?
Brown bear, black bear, white bear and more.
The eyes of the bears stares at bore.
How come the boar dared the bear ?
Brown bear, black bear, white bear and more.
All of the bears cared not to discourage.
I found myself this past year.
I found myself in the faces too beautiful to touch.
I found myself in the eyes of those who have seen too much.
Keep going.
I dare you.
But I can't fool you.
My children will starve
And be excited to see trees
At the rate
That everything is disappearing.
Prepare for fishless oceans
There's this sinking feeling in my stomache,
Like there's a pit swallowing me from the inside.
It feels abandoned and hallow,
Like I'm missing a part of my being.
It's sad and it hurts,
When I am having a bad day
And all I really want to do is hit the hay
I know that no matter what
When I come home, there will be my smiling pup
Wagging his tail and shaking his bum
Lick, bark, chewing toys.
They might make a little noise.
But never treat them ill.
Even if some act like a pill.
For they're not just animals or pets the're people too.
How you like somone hurting you?
I lost her.
I lost her smile.
I lost her love.
I lost her compassion.
It seems as if she is gone forever,
never to be held in my grasp again.
I searched for her.
Grace on water, peace in flight.
Honking in the fall while flying over sight.
Nests of eggs in the spring.
Honking is how they sing.
Feed them bread and they won't forget.
The friend they have met.
Start the day with a positive vibe
and be a part of the happy tribe.
Those that mumble, moan, or sigh
will never be greater in another's eyes.
Being positive is truly legit,
It's what I live for,
Every day when the bell rings I bolt for my car
Ready for the work ahead of me.
Walking into the doors of the clinic the chaotic sound of animals fills my ears,
It's what I live for,
I feign sleep,
Though I hear the quiet pitter patter of anxious feet,
It takes everything in me to not utter a peep,
To him, my awakening is a treat.
Without any more patience, he pounces,
As an African child, I loved the tales
But hated most superstitions in them
I viewed them as false chronicles
Based on invalid principles
Because they encouraged hatred
Hatred for my beloved creatures
When life brings me down and trips me to fall to the ground,
When life gives me hate instead of the love I crave,
When life bestows upon me unwanted feelings of despair and anxiety,
We went to the pound to look at the dogs ‘Just to look.” my parents had said But we all new what was going to happen I was going to find a dog and we would “have to keep it” I was in desperate need for a furry friend. My life was dull and sad. I w
Animals are not meant to be toyed with,
They are not meant to be kicked around or hit by a withe.
They are mans bestfriend, our friends through thick and thin
The sky is dark the land is still
The moon peeks over a distant hill
An owl begins to screech in the night
A lone wolf howls, bathed in moonlight
The leaves rustle as the wind starts to blow
My dog really loves to be scratched
On his ears and head
Oscar, so cute, he makes me happy
Coming home from a long shift
When I step out the car Collete already near
Walking toward the chair my feet hurt
I take a sip of water
My comfort cannot be quench
Only my furry friend Collete
I awake and seize the day,
acknowledging the morning rays.
I spend some time with my cat,
after putting on my hat.
I sense the coming chills from the fog,
as I go to hug my loving dog.
Damaged goods,
That's what they call a worn down old horse,
Who was once healthy,
But is now stricken with fleas.
Good enough for nobody.
Not strong enough to be a race horse,
A cabby horse,
Small, round, sun kissed leaves.
Hanging from tall aspen trees
reflected in the cool blue water
I write poetry because there are only so many ways that I can express how much I love spiders without sounding like a total creep.
A densely packed forest.
The bark is fur, the roots, hooves.
The foliage a four stomached mass of flesh.
No room to grow between the trees.
No way to feel the open breeze.
Inside a barn, it's eat, survive.
I am antique malls and dusty dishes
I am front porch pickers and moonshine sippers
I am light up sketchers and spongy pineapple dwellers
I am young mistakes and a family disgrace
I am dogwood trees and honey bees
Activist, Conservationist, Environmentalist
Veterinarian, Psychologist, Ethologist

Poetry may be quick,
but that makes it all the better,
a quick snap shot into the soul will do the trick,
Like the world summed up in a letter.

I am a songbird, yet I do not sing.
I once flew to the Heavens, now I have broken wings.
I once stood tall, brave, and free, now here I lie, chained and bleak.
Into her torn shoes fell the rocks.
She let them crumble, let herself bleed.
Trudging towards her tryst with trees,
under battered broken branches she
The animal was suffering cruel conditionsYou may ask yourself whyThe answer lay on monetary commissions The reason thousands of animals die.
They give us their devotion and love,
We respond with hate.
They show us their loyalty,
We cast them out on the street.
They offer us constant companionship,
We leave them alone to die.
Without any further ado
I'd like to explain who is who
In Odessa she dwells
She's annalee,my sis its true
As beautiful as water is wet
Mother nature she's jealous I bet
Pretty as a swan
Sprite is my dog,
To whom I pour my laughter and tear.
It leads me through damp fog,
In the morning walks when it senses my fear.
I have a sound,
Though I cannot speak.
To you,
I am just a piece of meat.
Raised in a cage,
Hunted down on the street.
To you,
I am just a piece of meat.
All my life I have looked up to you
Why then do you look down upon me?
I give you unconditional love
You give me kicks and shouts
What have I done wrong?
I don't know who I am.
I think people determine who they are by others. Really. Possibly. Truly.
There's always this running comparision people have with each other that won't ever fade...
If I were on an island, thrown ashore from the sea.
I would not be lonely if you were there with me.
My precious pet you'd snuggle close when the winds would blow.
You'd lick my face and wag your tail when my mood was low.
I want to save the beesThose buzzing specs of insignificant works of breath are more human than I will ever beLoyalty resides in their instinctLike-mindedness is nurtured with butting antennaDetermination is the settlement of every flightTheir sel
Oh, your majesties,
you stun me to the core
with your glorious beauty.
The eyes of an old sage,
shine infinite wisdom,
pouring into and over,
everything in your paths.
Oh, how I wish
This estranged lump of earth
softens underfoot
with thoughts of their compassions
For I was once among them
and knew their truths
Oh that mortal virtue!
Furry , Friendly, and Sweet you mean so much to me.
Your name is Bucky, cause it rhymes with lucky.
Which was great cause you came to me with amazing traits.
My four-legged friend your like a two legged human ,
“Why do you have to be so hard?”
“You know missing one day of practice is like missing the entire season.”
“Why do you always want to kill me?”
In honor of my best friend; my 11 month old lab, Mickey
to sacrifice
is to love
Not overreacting
but welcoming
to accept
no matter how
messed up you are
or lonely
In my boat, there I lie thinking of you
Waves toss back and forth like thoughts in my head
Anticipating how to pursue
Haunted by all the words you’ve never said
I don't know what I did.
Don't you know there are laws that forbid.
You leave me bloody scars on my face and pull on my fur.
How many more times will this occur?
I hear the words whispering in my head,
"Lonely, alone, lost, forgotten."
"You don't belong."
I look at everyone around me and I ask myself,
"Why are you so far from me when I feel so close to you?"
Master, I wonder
why do you beat me so.
What have I done to deserve this
pain.
Is it because my name is Pitbull
Live each day as if its your last
always live in the moment
for each day is a new beggining
to a perfect ending.
How can I live a life without
my dear pets who love me, no doubt
with their cute meows and their playful barks
as we stroll throughout the park.
But what if they leave just like that?
They surround us.
We take over there land,
Yet they still love us.
They depend on us.
We are their voice,
So they protect us.
Without them, I would not have purpose.
Here I sit on this lonely island with nothing to do.
But I chose to bring one special thing with me.
A picture that makes me feel small as in a shoe.
Of the love I knew as a kid with the.
Sometimes I wonder
if dogs are loyal to their owners
because they think that they owe them something.
Maybe dogs don’t realize
that fresh food and water
I can be calm or fierce,
as soft as a feather or as sharp as thorns,
midnight black or white as snow,
weak as grass or strong as oak,
Roaming the land of the lost
Each color that coats her back, shifts like the wind that vibrates the valleys
Her surroundings are blurred by the unfamiliarity
How can they assumeThat trapped beneath unyielding gloomThat there’s a safely padded roomIn which my Psyche lay.
A jungle environment
With fists clenched tight.
Clinging onto fig branches
Like a baby koala.
Fingers sharp and tightened,
Like ET,Calling phone to home.
Eye sockets widened,

Those grey birds
They beat their wings
Droves of feathers following
Up and up into the air
Flying high with little care
One bird, two birds

I'm a kitten who just wants to play
But when it comes to playtime where I live it never ends nicely
I'm kicked, thrown, and slapped.
I am a dog as sweet as can be,
But I live in a place where no one loves me.
I cannot comprehend why they yell so angrily,
Or why they always beat me so savagely.
As i lie alone in my cage, after my beating,
HEAD OF A MOOSE
With eyes of marble and tuffs of hair
The lonesome moose loooks oh so bare
So put him above the mantle
so you can see him loud and clear
"He's from Alaska"
I am who I say I am,
but who do I say I am?
Am I a success,
or am I a failure?
I am a success,
because I know who I am.
I am an athlete,
a devoted, hard working athlete.
Look at me now; tell me what you see?
A small new puppy full of hope and need.
I do not speak or seem to hear,
though now and then I show real fear.
What will I be when I am grown?
She was born a poet and didn't know it,A girl with a story insides her soul a girl who takes thought and put it on paper, adding some dips and rifts and curves, sprinkling some of her heart into this poetic pot, mixing in metaphors and some simile
It's a little misery
from a place
my mother's stomach
to my abusive sibling and dad
I am born to be infuriated
born to not be able to change it
to be shocked
condemned
into a religious
I do not eat my friends
You eat my friends
I can see their ends
Sometimes... people stab my friends
they feed my friends to their friends
I can see their ends
I've tried to say i'm sorry
i've tried to be the best
I try only to fail the most important part of life
i try to say im sorry for breaking your heart
It dont matter no more it don't tear you apart
My mind races of endless things I want to be
However, the abyss is contradictory
From the first time I was allowed to breath to the last where I thirst for it my fate is sealed only to be revealed at the last moment like a finale
Animals have feelings like we do
They might have a different way to express those feelings
but they are there just the same
happy
sad
angry
Our fury friends listen to us
I have only seen my father cry twice
But the first time I saw him spill crocodile tears
Into the Nile river of grief was four years ago.
A small fleck
In an ocean of small flecks
Not heavy enough
To break through the surface tension
There may be bigger small flecks
And there may be smaller ones
And who has time to investigate
I am determined to live forever. No matter what i go through, i will escape this bad weather. With the world by my side, we can escape this high tide. With every breath will blow away the fears of everyone that has cried.
They're defenseless,
They're helpless,
We all know it,
But how do they show it,
They whine, they beg,
But we pay them no attention,
They starve, they freeze and they die every day,
remember when we were in love
we had each other it was just enough
you told me i was all you need
just you and me
i remember when you were down
i picked you up right off the ground
I am the girl who has so many questions,why did you leave me?, or why didn't you come back for me?
Rabbits are soft, furry and warm,
They cuddle and eat right from your hand
Sad eyes,
black skies.
All these lies,
I just want to die.
It's sickening, you abuse me for entertaining,
all my energy is draining.
It's raining, please let me in,
Watching you,
watching you abuse me.
Sad eyes,
asking why?
What have I done? I have just been loyal to you,
you take me for granted.
You use me,
while I thought you loved me.
Big and black,
white under neck,
white on paws and under belly,
furry and warm,
smells like feathers.
Always sleeping,
always licking,
meticulously cleaning fur.
Laying on my bed,
I wish I was a bird, you see
They fly oh so freely
Tiring as though it might be
Their strength is spectacular really
Maybe their diet it key
Birds are nothing less than awesome
Awesome the word that can describe a person place or a thing in this world not everything could be awsome but in the eyes of your own you can make everything you touch feel and see awsome Now the word awsome to me will is just plain awsome i use
Could I but give you comfort in my death,How might I tell you what you meant to me?All I did, both night and day, was love you,
I'm a bird. I'm a bird. I'm a bird. A bird that flys gracefully and a bird that flaps their wings and doesn't care about how much noise it creates.
There's a part of me that is child-like
There's a part of me that is a snob.
There's a part of me that thirsts for knowledge.
There's a part of me that is always laughing.
There's a part for family.
sunshine is awesome
so are my cats
my dog is awesome
as are my friends
we all get along
so well, every day
how is this real life
do i have to graduate?
The epitome of selflessness dogs see past imperfections.
If you need them theyll be there with unlimited affection.
For pooches love us more than themselves.
In exhange for a loving home, for simply being treated well.

Velvet triangles, shiny black buttons
and soft pink hands
that grip the underside of my window.
He is peaceful, finally fully unafraid
while sleeping while only I watch
his steady daytime slumber.
A book can be diminutive or tall.
The print can be massively large or small.
Never judge a book by its cover,
there once was a guide dog named Lucy.
who had a nasty owner named John
every night he'd tie her to the foot of his bed
it would choke her until she was nearly dead
one night he was especially cruel
Who is she among us silent
The very thought
that once we hurt and left alone
be lost in intolerable
Never mind my monologue, unless you'd like to dialogue.
I woke this morning in a fog, because, you see, I lost my dog.
She was no normal dog, by the way.
One day I found her at a matinee.
A vow with my right hand, do I take,A cover for my personal beating drum.A chorus of voices, do I join,With hat off, honor giving me three inches,I set my sights on manifested integrity.
I sat alone one evening,
Nearly dreaming upon my table propped,
Stopped had I from work to rest,
Foodless days
Painfull nights
I don't understand why I have to fight
I'm supposed to be loved not put into a ring
Time to game up when you here the Ding Ding
Acrossed the ring here he comes
I never knew he could make me so happy.His kisses and cuddles, I know it’s sappy.
His hands aren’t like hands they are more like paws.So I was fine with having a ménage a trois.
Do a flip for me!
Do a trick, it'll be the only way you'll get your food.
Smile Sweetie, Pumpkin, Jimmy, Armie!
I hope you enjoy the room, it'll be your home forever.
Want to run? Swim?
All animals feel pain
Primates make different faces for different emotions
Dogs remember who you are when you walk through the door
Dolphins are known to communicate with each other
Just turn your face to the sunAnd wipe tears of mope and burnAnd grip the steering wheel of lifeAnd learn to be brave and aliveTo welcome tomorrow with a new hopeWhere doubts have no place of mope
Your wagging tail mirrors the trees gently swaying in the wind.
Your gleaming eyes mirror the sunshine in mid-July, my smile as I see you after a long hard day.
When your paws sprint across the fields of glory, I can see
With us, not for us.
Because we share this Earth, and don't take it for granted.
Because we are all animals, of different kinds, and different abilities.
Because we are all sentient beings with emotions and feelings,

Whats happening in this world is a disgrace
I was born into this world by parents and adopted by you
You didn’t have to adopt me, but you wanted to keep me
I wanted to be your pet, love and devoted to you it’s true
Damnable Demon, my Demise,
Why must you give such huge eyes.
I feel guilty now.
They come from behind the rock
Together they run
Passing the dock
Like little children having fun
Words.
Some are better left unsaid,
to have never come out at all.
Words.
Some are better left unheard.
Why defile the innocent and pure with a single
word?
Why can we not use our brains
The Dance
Written by: Stephanie Garcia
When I ride my horse in the mid-summer mornings,
we dance.
The drums pound and two hearts beat as one
working in rhythm and cadence.
You Lifted me up when i was down,
masterfully crafted like artwork by him.
beauty at its core kindness unfathomable,
your presance enshrouded me with love.
Swoosh went your soul,
The Wind runs freely over the open plains
Oh little one, how they call you insane.
How you run and play, racing with the wind
No, nothing can keep you pinned.
Look how you grow through the ages
Life is Life
None better than another
None more worthy of existence
We all share the same home
On this beautiful planet
Earth
Eventually,
All lives end
Why does the chains of society have a constant need to judge when I am asked to change for what they want it's ok but when I change for what I need it's hard to make happen people constantly let my past decide my future I can't change my past but
Dreadfully scared and confused
they are crammed with other hopless ones
awaiting their hopeless fate.
The closest thing they have to a name is a tag with a number
representing merely when they are due to die.
I'm a pest,
And I'm a thief.
Though, I do not mean no harm,
I disturb your peace.
But can you give me my peace?
Can you give back what you took from me?
Only half is fine.
They say pain lasts forever,
While I know that isn’t true.
Wounds can’t last forever,
I have never seen a Killer Whale
Not a real one anyway
But often enough at night
Waking to the noise of lapping waves
Frequent upon hitting the surface
Random in location of where
I am more than a genetically modified organismThat was constructed for scientific research.
As I watch a light glow from a distance
the darkness slowly consumes me.
I'm afraid of not knowing what there is
but even more so of knowing there is nothing.
How I could I be so alone,
I love you
Not only for what you are,
But for what I am,
When I'm with you.
I love you,
Not for what you made of yourself,
But for what...
You are making of me.
I am everything I could ever ask
When time flits away my inner beauty thrives
Guiding me to the infinite fountains
i'm only me That is all i can be no more no less don't second guess i love, i live, i laugh, i cry i'v wished sometimes that i could die some day's i'm funny other i'm not sometimes i'm in over drive and i can't stop you may not like me but that'
My heart beats too
My lungs can breathe
I have arms and legs
And eyes to see
I may have parts you don't have
Buth theirs still a heart in my chest
And a brain in my head
I was born the way I am
So I'll be what I want in life
there's only room for one me
and it'll never be a strife
I have a purpose in this world
and I live to fullfill
Hi my name is
well I don't know
I've never had a home
been in a cage since I was born
In my small bed I hear the sounds outside the door
Girls screaming, boys being boys
Moms and dads saying yes, saying no
Who would say no to a face in need?
But this is America, and we have a choice.
My dog, mine. My life disrupted, my space invaded.
No! Down! My nerves a wreck.
Come here, you hungry? I love you.
Pee on the floor,hair everywhere, stupid dog.
I'm all alone on this rainy, cold and empty street.
Where have you gone?
Do you still care about me?
Look i see a light on!
I'm limping up to the door hoping to find you there.
I am fluffy on the outside,
warm and loving on the inside,
I will make you happy when you're down
and make you smile when you frown,
I will always be there for you when you have to cry

It all began that one day.
It was a dark and dreary day.
I could sense what was coming.
I could feel it in my bones.
Something good and bad was going to happen.
When I was born, I was told that no one would ever love me.
I went through my early months, feeling unloved.
No matter what my mom did, when she was not around I would get tortured.
All I do is love you
But look what you put me through
You come home drunk, angry and swinging
I cower in fear awaiting the stinging
I fondle your side and search into your eyes.
I hear your heartfelt cries.
The experience of the wild spirit that I see
and your longing to be free.
Yet, I promise you will find some felicity with me.
Why is it so painful to love someone you love but only as they put it.
a friend.
why is it so sad to always walk around like you dont have feelings for that.

why do you have to try so hard to pretend.

You find it at night when you sleep in bed
and the days that you come home and rest from the voices in your head.
They pray for it
and run to it
and can't get enough of it.
Peace.
Serenity.
They walk along the floor just as us, but with more of those toes, and more of their feet.
Shes beautiful and strong . She gave us life and is wise when to take it. She loves you even if you attack her. She gives to us, even when we steal from her. She tries to warn us but we won't listen.
How can you slaughter them?
The poor, hopeless babies
The weary, weak elders
All the souls in between
How can you sleep at night,
Knowing that you are causing this suffering?
When I graduate high school,
I'm definitely going to cry.
I'll try hard not to,

There is no greater joy in life
than that of being the suject of a dog's love.
They are excited to see you,
excited to be near you,
just happy to breathe the same air as you.
Dogs, it seems,
A world of imagination
The impossible is possible
This place was the creation
From what was once an obstacle
A sanctuary for marine mammals
They are well cared for

Child upon the horse
Horse runs strong with a spirit
He sees through the lies
Spirit brings life to the girl
Playful, loving, full of energy.
Golden fur and a long bronze tail.
Capable of killing,
But unwilling to do so.
The dog is in the corner of the room
Doesn’t know what he did wrong
His owner holds a belt
Ready to leave a welt
Smack…smack…smack goes the belt
No one is around to stop it
The dog squeals in pain
Who am I really?
I don't even know.
I've hidden myself so well,
That not even I can find me.
I'm hidden behind a persona of courage.
A persona of happiness.
Every year the masks change.

Constant calling muffled by apathetic metal

attacking people on the streets, hurting newborns in their sleep,
almost as if I'm a creep!
I never meant to hurt you, but that's what society expects me to do,
Changes A Pit Bulls Name
I see pain in those eyes,
each thing thats happened,
Slaughter
Natural birthright
Human apathy, indifferent
Your dinner: tortured souls
Murder
All These Years
All these years a little girl has thought and pondered.
All these years a little girl has cried.
I heard another sad story today,
Another pet went in a grave,
They say it was the owners, in dismay
I bowed my head and started to cry
No air or water was left to survive
My emotions are bursting out like a screech on a violin.
I miss you and it's this pain I can not hold within.
Kept in confined cages,
waiting out their days.
A peeled radish in the nude,
executed for a posh pelt;
purely for the avarice of humans.
A dorsal fin removed to prepare a luxury soup,
I've yet to see the light of day.
"Animals don't feel", they always say.
I grew up, not loved and overfed.
Just so my meat can be placed between two slices of bread.
What did I do to deserve this,
I wash the dishes with phosphates
And they go outside, down the drain.
They land in rivers with
that now have chemicals in their gills.
I water the flowers with oil
that leaks from my car.
Time to prepare
All stops, to sit down
Green, Red, Brown
Medicine within
Organic love traveling
Longing satisfaction
Lasting energy
Yellow, Purple, Blue
Not a soul abused
This music beats loud in my ears
This knife feels cold in my hands
Blood stains the concrete
This act stains my record
I am labled crazy as i dance around the gasping soul
Laughing i take another life
My heart is in more ruins than the Aztec temples. And I cant find enough pieces of debris to build a proper wall around my guarded heart.
My barrier is covered and wrapped viciously in these chains, the effort put into freeing this barrier are slim to none. i don't love and i do not sympathize for the other sex.
To the cruel and the heartless,
you know who you are.
Don't try to turn your head,
you don't have a heart.
You may not know me,
at least not well.
But don't you worry,
because soon you will.
Air has been getting lighter since I was pushed in,
Feels like forever ago.
Water has been getting murkier the deeper I sink,
Roof hidden from the low.
At night I sleep and become a frog
Being a bully on spiders and beetles
I enjoy jumping from log to log
What makes me tick
Tick...
Tick...
The time ticking away
The lives of the creatures
Tick...
I look to the clouds
For fear of falling to reality
Where dogs’ hearts are broken into pieces
We blame the breeds
But we don’t blame ourselves
For what we’ve done to the dogs
A fox lay languid on simmering asphalt.
Its eyes guileless, life dripping from its wounds.
Its ochre coat still shone like the sun,
sneaking through the clouds.
Both the fox and the sun pounce
There's a road by mide side by my left feet
Ther's a guide by my side just ti help me
I got the sun, i got the peace, i got someone to me me
Here I am
I told you that when the morning come
Loyalty is all I know
Forgiveness is the meaning of my life
Unconditional love is seen in my eyes.
Yet you hurt me.
Hit me.
Cage me.
And for what?
Am I not supposed to be man’s best friend?
All I wanna do is play,
But I'm watching the days pass away,
And although you don't give me toys to chew,
Master I will always love you,
You walk in the door and I'm happy,
Back, Forth
Creak
Forth, Back
Creak
Thunder pounds down on a bleeding soul
Lightening flashes across the jewel eyes of a
Hummingbird
Golden gates surround her
To match her skirt of scarlet red
Below a long, grey coat,
The crown of feathers on her head
Above a soft, pink throat.
Below a long, grey coat
The leopard is almost entirely solitary,
so he is seeking it, seeking it,
all his thought is bent upon it.
And in the valley far below,
they leave a shallow scrape
and passed, still standing.
My flesh, bones, and blood...
Always being torn apart by a monster.
Unknown by their actions,
If I survived, I'd wake up with blood on my fur...
I'd cry, whimper and beg...
Don't let me go,
I only wanted your attention.
Sorry for biting on your shoe and destoying the yard
I just wanted to have some fun,
Since your hardly around.
Don't let me go,
Into the unkown.
The life I see
That othert do not
There must be
The answers I've always sought
The eyes of an animal
What intellegence within
Is a beauty more tangable
To ignore it is a sin
My memory is flimsy, weak to the remembrance
but…
Never forgotten are the sentiments that cause my heart to cry
Savory veracity
Appeal to my palette
One job can change my life
When I can wake up to the sun caressing my face
Take nature at its most beautiful, and it's most terrifying
One job can change my life
By calling it not a job but a privilege
One job may give me hope.
One job may define my life.
One job; the chance to change my future.
One place, North Carolina.
One place, the destination of my growth.
One place, the animal sanctuary.
I used to be a weird little girl
Who'd rather play with lizards than pearls.
In the fifth grade I had an obsession with tigers
Almost as strong as Napoleon with ligers.
Living shadow, masqueraded in darkness incarnate,
A jungle prowler gifted with rare sable hues of remarkable sight.
Alas, displaced from its spectral realm to stalk no more, a face frozen in time,
You brought me home to love me, yet I stay here all alone. Not worth your time or trouble, out of sight and out of mind. I hurt because I'm hungry, I hurt because I'm cold, and yet you pass right by me all the time.
I want to have a job that
Electrifies
Sends love in sparks
through the skies
I want be the shelter for
The "less priviledged"
The ones without a voice
The ones who get tossed aside
From the age of six, I've been asked what I'll be.
A doctor. A princess. A captain of the sea.
All of the above are applaudable choices.
Though, none involve the usage of voices.
Poor animals abused and hurt
Humans just continue on and worry about their new shirt
People abusing their power
While animals shake in fear and cower
I wanted to help those poor souls
For all of my lifeI have been told,"follow the crowd"and "fit the mold".But I am unique,you see.
I first witnessed it on television.It could not be reality.I saw it in my own neighborhood.It was reality.I knew that there had to be a change.This became my reality.
A purebred pedigree dog
Beautiful beyond repair
Stars of the dog world
Spoiled and loved by human hands
To USE your mind,
Is to Utalize time,
Frame
To follow a Path,
Is to find SUPPORT,
Build
To speak one's mind,
Is to complete the ALLEGORY,
No shame.
An Orca incaptivity becomes aggressive,
they should be peaceful adoring creatures but instead locked away in a swimming pool,
Is it now or is it never?
Is it here or is it there?
Is it the end or
Just the beginning?
Is it friends that destroy us or
Our enemies that save us?
Ask and Answer
We will see
So choose
Everything is perfect, the way it's meant to be.
The sun is beating down on me while I'm in the water, splashing
In my community
We have many manatee,
We need to protect the sea cow
And I can tell you how,
Dream Career
How becoming a Vet would change my life
I’d be able to showcase to the world that I’ve arrived
Nothing or no one could bring me down
As long as I’m caring for animals I’d be wearing the crown
It needs to change so it shall,
Eventually with or without me here.
I can change thee or others;
I could be acquisitive changing my mien, and my myriad faults;
I’m lost in
My mind I
Keep thinking
About her
I lay in my
Big loaf just
Thinking when
Will I see her?
All I can do
Is pray while
I’m sitting on
The rim of a
The end
Of his life approached from behind
Straight through the wall he cowered against
The shadow
Of our hate-tinged body swallowed him once again
I was born
and I loved you
Who am I kidding?
I still love you
I know you, you you
They whispered through the slivers of light
as they passed the rattling big thing,
"You belong somewhere else,
The fish say he doesn't care,
Whether in the lake, pond, or ocean,
Even if he doesn't know how to swim,
He say he'll practice,
Even if it takes years,
Or all his life,
He say he'll practice,
Resting my tiresome eyes, whilst not listening to whom has to speak;
For I know what the truth is, yet no one sees as clear as the words that go unheard.
These beings make no sounds, a voice box gone to waste;
Caught up in the now of young woman yearsmy thoughts are at seaan ocean full of my fears.Pulled too many ways than a girl should beAre these flames of hell too strong for me?
The One Job That Changes Lives
I hear their feet
Barely touching the ground,
Along side white wooden fences
There are a few things I know of a surety,
one is that there's great power in purity,
Not just in actions, but words and in deeds.
This is something, I think the world needs.
What would you change
If you could change
Anything at all?
Would you make your parents
Happy? Or would you go back
In time? Correct a mistake? Do
Better at school? Be nice to
When everyone else sees only a snarling muscular killing machine
I see misunderstood protectors and companions on that silver screen
World Hunger and Wars is what I am predicting my family would say
However, this is not what ruins my day
Animal Rights is what needs done
It needs to change in more ways than one
Saving lives is what I want to do
It may take a year of college or a few
However I know it will be worth it
Every hour of studying every bit
My dream job, is to be a doctor, of animals of course,
But I cant help if their owners are feeling hoarse.
As humans. We can get things ourselves.
We have thumbs
I aspire to be a veteranarian.
I can accomplish this goal on my own
...But what about those who are helpless
Like newborn babies
You think you know me!
Who I am, what I’m about.
Let’s be honest here, you have no idea.
Muchin? I go there.
College? It’s near.
If I could change one thing, big or small,no stray would be put down at all.
Animal curelty is everywhere
It's become a part of everyday life and no one seems to care.
It's in our everyday products, our medicine, our food
And yet our attitudes towards this subject have become horribly eschewed.
Beaten. Scared. Abused.
Wondering what they did wrong,
And so confused.
Ever since you brought them home
They trusted you.
Now every time you come around
They run from you.
Maybe it’s ‘cause I’m not pretty.
Maybe it’s ‘cause I’m not always calm.
But whatever it was, how did I deserve what they did to me?
I wasn’t born in this city.
I didn’t want to be ripped from my mom.
I look in your eyes and what do i see?
I see my reflection and you abusing me
Why do you do this?
Have I not shown you love?
How do i deserve this?
What have i done wrong?
Swimming in a pool of amniotic fluid
Virgin to the unknown world.
Momma cow releases her child, filled with joy to have brought a child in to this world.
I look down,
And she looks up.
My brown eye,
to her black one.
I walk on above,
she swims in the pool.
Separated by only,
Fifteen feet and a tilted pane of glass.
From the age of 9
I wanted to become a vet
Not the war kind the animal kind
I've had dogs and fish.
They cannot speak as you and I do.
Do we realize the pain they go through?
Through and through it happens again.
Again and again they are abused.
Abused by the people they call family.
The scorching Serengeti heat casts a spotlight
Shining on a glorious creature whose life is finite
He enters the land of the stories untold
But he is the hunter whose task is so bold
Animals are God's voiceless angels. Who show us how treat all of God's life forns.
Why is it that we assume that only humans are destined for greatness,
That only we are allowed to live freely and love freely
Why do you keep me outside in the cold?
As I lay on the ground, I am just seven years old.
My whole body shivers, I can't feel my feet,
I just want to come inside and have something to eat.
Leaves shine yellow, orange and red as the
Sun breaks through each branch,
Setting the tree aflame.
Sparks jump and dance from the limbs and
Excite the quiet stream below.
They are mans best friend but sometimes man becomes its worst enemy. They shiver and huddle in the corner of a kennel. Afraid for their lives. They have no clue what they have done to deserve such punishment. Why can man just be gentle?
Is it humane?
To keep such an exquisite animal in a tank,
All for our personal gain.
Captured at the age of two,
Tilikum has built up a mound of rage.
Wouldn’t you?
Human's, living things that once did not exist and then take over the world like they were the first ones here.
Cat
An animal with fur and 4 legs
Meowing and Dancing
Chasing mice down the hall
Leaving Footprints on my heart
Entering the animal shleter is a life changing event. Loud screams drowned out by the wrench of upcoming death. What is the purpose of killing animals? To make space for more animals to die? It is not their fault.
A kind, tender, benevolent creature living on it's own
Content at it's highest it still remains, even within this time zone
With a heart so pure and full of life
We destroy it, with our native hunting knife
I see you.
I hear you.
But do I know what you're saying?
My duty is to save you life
You may not know it but I’m looking after you
Where are the Wild Things
When they are no longer wild
There is no chance for them to explore
When there is no chance for them to live
I want to save them from all of man's doings
If I obtained the power
to look at any situation through my dogs eyes
i would look at the front door
and wonder what lays outside behind it
and if i ever got the chance to run beyond that door
i would
i wonder who it could be
that would want me for me
who could include my faults
in whats best of me
why cant i see
when will he show
its been a dream of mine
he holds the key
What would i change, to make this world better?
A home for th homeless? Give a freezing body a sweater?
I was going to be a vet for as long as i can remember,
I was decided, convinced, wanted to be a member.
Animals were my thing,
And the money was nice.
There really was no reason to ever think twice.
Cubicle after cubicle
Dim fluorescent light
The hum of air conditioning
No end to the day in sight
Here there is no passion
We work to pay the bills
We work because we have to
One job may change my life,
but my goal is to change the lives of animals.
Saving their lives,
The one job that will change my life. That one and only job will be the one I have always dreamed of. Veterinarian Technology.
how could you hurt
something so defenseless
how could you not love
something so innocent
shame on you, just shame on you
a life that hurts an animal is less than a life to me
Although it's been two years now
I am still reminded everyday and it brings me to a bow.
The new playful puppy next door,
and all I want to see is you on my floor.
Being strong through these days is hard,
Take me to the next level,
of joy and understanding
Look at the beauty right in front of you,
instead of sleeping silently.
They see me, but do they really look?
Can they look past this book?
They have no voice to ask for help from those called to love
Yet you hear their cries all over the world
Blood is shed like rain from above
Cruelty so deep it makes your blood curl
They will break your heart
Innocent lives gone forever
Simply euthanized
Taken without their consent
Animals, we are their voice
Fancy Rats, Dwarf Hamsters, Himilayan Cats
Wild life like Raccoons, and pests like sewer rats.
Every waking moment, I think of each one
and how i'd like to save them all before my life is done
Trapped behind bars,
innocent and helpless with no voice.
We merely gawk and awe.
Sounds of "ooh" and "ahh" fill the air.
There's a sadness,
we try to ignore.
Some know its wrong,
Running with manes flowing in the wind,
The beauty of their hearts within.
Their hooves pounding across the ground.
Their kind spirits so nice to have around.
They have been there to aid in all our wars,
There's something poking my stomach
A sharp angry pain
It's hard to cope with
Maybe if I lie still it will subside...
I want to be a bunny Rabbit
to hop all my cares away
I want to munch on carrots and grass
to play with other bunnies
that are carefree and don't sass
I want to hop away if their is a storm
Everyday fighting, starving, and killing,
Everyday going through the motions,
Where is our American dream?
Where is the promise of a better future?
Those who want school can't afford it,
When she stares into the void
All thoughts displayed
On a silent one act play
Her eyes open to all
As the black veil torn
Ten feet off the ground
Who can touch us now?
Grab my hand.
Hold it tight.
Look where we stand.
When I was a small puppy
I brought smiles to your face
We played and we had fun
You petted me softly
You told me what a good puppy I was
Tricked into traps,
Locked in cages,
Thrown like trash off the tops of trucks.
Scared, alone and helpless,
They wait.
They wait for their turn to be violently tortured,
How can you hit, kick, and drag a brute?
Throw them in a pit for your own amusement?
It's people like you that should get the boot
Why do you wonder why you're in disrepute?
They walk
They talk
They run
They play and have fun
They eat and sleep
They laugh and weep
They form lasting relationships
Sometimes they get left out on their own
They have a family
It's time to fathom the impossible, it's time to get to work - she said.
Where to begin? She circled her evironment thrice before dawn.
"I stand before this great and wonderful creature. His powerful muscles quiver under his sleek and shining coat. He tosses his head, his mane flowing like waves in the ocean. Large brown eyes stare back at me, into my heart.
Pigs, chickens, cows, and goats.
Products on my shelf.
Unable to speak as I rip off thier coats.
You looked at me, like I looked at you the first time I brought you home.With eyes filled with fear, of loneliness and a desperate cry for help.
Warm or cold, high tide or low
Liquid, salty, blue, and constant motion
Pretty shells you want to stow
they are lovely and beautifulprotective and terrorialjust like any other dog.they love being around peoplelove the attentionjust any other dog.Pitbulls are not monstersfighterskiller.
I speak for the hypersensitive people.
we are small in number,
but we make up for it in love.
when you are sad, we feel every tear that is shed.
when you are angry, we feel your rage.
They come hurt, sick, bleeding, and scared.
They are loveing, they are frearful.
They do not understand why they are here.
I hold them with loving arms as they shake and tremble
The herds,
Roaming free,
Millions of black dots,
Inhabiting the west,
-Bang-
The fatal crack of a gun,
One falls then begins,
Domino effect,
Once sacred to the Natives,
put aside the crack
walk by the crack
see the plumber's crack
now it is time to see and listen
and maybe have a heart attack
because my friends
degrak is back
The grass dances
with the wind
to the music of crickets.
Horses stand around
flicking off flies
which does nothing.
Clouds move freely
About the sky and
It’s a shame.
This world we didn’t choose to live in.
It’s a shame that he is born into this world, all smiles and cherub hair, not knowing that he is already decaying.
Feels as a human
pained like a man
it's easy to believe they dont percieve,
to justify or pardon the suffering we subject.
They dont speak
but communicate silently!
There are few who truly know you,
who truly understand.
For others just see the veil that everyone else has draped upon you.
They only see the fabrication of something that is a nightmare to others.
Found
A round
Honor bound
Make not a sound
Buried mound
Sorely wound
Lockless pound
Kindness downed
Restless hound
you don't hear the words they can't say
their eyes hold the memories of the past
they survive day by day
they don't remember how long it'll last
they stay hidden as long as they can
Roses are red Violets are blue
I still cry over you
No matter what happens I will avenge your beautiful soul.
I know that I played a role,
But I will see your legacy known.
Treating me as if I am a slave,
Yet I am more free than you will ever be,
You tell me not to speak,
But I will speak even louder,
You put a chain around my neck,
But I will pull until you let go,
Geometry shouldn't even be a subject in high school
Why do we need to know how to plot point on a graph?
I love my pug
She has the cutest mug
She loves to eat bugs
We currled up on the rug
Say No to drugs
What does a bird wish for?
Does it want to swim or would it rather appreciate mighty wings
Would the king of the jungle want the knowledge of being technical
Or a shark being able to hunt below and above the sea

Recycled salt water fills a glimmering cement hole, not to mention the animal inside who was ripped from his soul, it's not taking a toll, like undressing eyes fixated on a stripper's pole.
“THINGS YOU CANNOT TELL TEACHERS’’
DID YOU LNOW YOUR BREATHE SMELLED THE DAY YOU WERE SCREAMING AT ME?
DID YOU KNOW YOUR WORDS MADE ME REBEL AGAINST YOU MORE?
mr.angrove thanks for constantly being on me about my work and helping me get prepared for college .
Flowers and flames
You are the center of my frame
Came to me you have with a dance to my rhythm and I a rhythm to your melody
A passionate correlation to a warm midnight rhapsody
The princess of the Pridelands,
Her fur golden-orange, bright like the sun, and her soul reflects that,
Overprotectivness from Simba, the king, her dad, causes a streak of darkness.
Despite being gallantYou are so flippantNow you have crumbledUnder the weight of your own bundleWhich is filled with avariceAnd governed by men of malice
They come when you call them
they go when they please
they bring what you tell them
with a free pack of fleas.
You take care of them
they take care of you
the cost of protection
You’re a well-known company, eaten in many homes, it’s true…
You sell lots really cheap so everyone can buy you.
You don’t taste too bad, but definitely not the best,
Yet for you, there should be an arrest.
The bitterness of one night stands,
That void filled with strangers' hands.
Eye lashes flutter over stained bed sheets,
As familiar scenes are relived, and they weep.
The Place Where I Belong
What is my community?
The place where I belong
Filled with the ones I love
Who keep me going strong
Without my friends and family
The Pit Bull friend or foe
Mans best friend or no?
Bread a killer or a devoted companion.
The gentle giant to some,
A murderer to most.
Powerful, Intimidating, caring all so true,
Because of love I write
Because of love I will fight
Because of love I smile
Because of love I travel miles
Becasue of love I cry
Because of love I won't say goodbye
Becasue of love I sacrifice
As I look at these seven stories,
it’s difficult not to cry.
These poor animals are beaten,
abused, and left to die.
Students in Vegas cut of the head
of a bird, exotic and rare.
I am the one who fought for you
Because it’s what you asked.
I am the one who would have died for you
If to me that is what you tasked.
Hello precious little one
Will you sing again
A duet with me
You know it makes me
So very happy
The joyful notes arching
The low notes resonating
And everything perfectly tune
You walk in.
I stop, stare.
You sigh, and lean on a wall.
I’m shocked,
You were in shock.
Hair missing,
And skin stitched together,
From the battered, tattered, pieces.
They say he is one of many, not worth more than any given penny. He has been passed along from hand to hand "too big, to weird, not fit for demand." His scars explain his many fears, a trailer, a whip, an auctioneer.
Hundreds of children
All yelling with glee
Come running inside
With much to see.
I sit here,
Scared and alone,
Shy , quiet, Invisible
She doesn’t speak
Afraid to be seen as weak,
Always thought her life was miserable.
She hides,
She cries,
She dies inside
Hidden and Scared.
I wish to be a kangaroo
in the wild
unrestrained
free
leaping to where i wish to be
soaring through the sky
landing wherever my heart desires
I am confronted by all their faces.
The faces that say please love me
In place of my owner who is an absentee.
So, here I am, giving out warm embraces.
I wish my work was enough,
I do not have nine lives
My wounds take time to heal
They hurt and I have no pain medicine
When I am abused, how do you think I feel?
I do not shed human tears
But I do make noise from the pain
When you go to the grocery store
They don't tell you about the hormones and anibiotics
That is in the chicken and meat you buy
They don't tell you about the lives
That those chickens didn't get to live
Hate the world
Hate it hard.
Hate it 'til the scars are gone.
Hate me here
Hate me there.
These people hate me everywhere.
Love is strong,
But hate is stronger.
Everyday my hate grows longer.
Maybe the timing’s not right.
Or maybe it’s just not meant to be.
Should I put up a fight?
Or should I let it be?
I keep running into you.
We’re so close, yet so far.
Why me?
I thought you loved me?
You picked me up and saved me.
Why?
Why did you want a friend?
To make another creature feel miserable
You held me. Spoke few but
The words Gone,
You were gone and your shadow left
I can’t see myself-
In the mirror,
A figure of stranger struggling.
Holding on to the smoke
Nocturnal RainbowsMy life is full of good times but mostly bad times like no other,My emotions and feelings with inner thoughts can only be explained by color.Not just normal colors of a school taught rainbow Just the outrageous colors of my noctu
Behind the glass
You look so different
But then again
We're the same in other ways
Like how we feel
Alienated
But I'm not performing in a show
Every single day
How does it feel
I went to the bus hoping she their
my one only crush
her smile made me want to blush
thinking what to say give he how do you
do no to corny she might think im horny
As I went she was not their
Night and Day your at my side,
my friend my heart my peace.
Lighten my mornings,
watching you run and play and chase.
Brighten my nights,
next to me close warming my dreams.
The children have grown old,
though there are many,
this land is new but,
my mother is a terrorist,
they are working hard,
to survive their unchosen location,
but the fear returns when,
Pain
Pain
Pain
The echo of the thought resonates through the cold stiff air like a horrific cacophony,
Why does it never get better
how does it continue to get worse
my life flashes befor my eyes,
I love the way thou walked into my soul,Thy eyes brilliant rays of golden sun,That from the horizon came and then stoleMy heart with one look. Thy potent glare doneWhat Narcissus could not have done before.
when we first saw them
we wanted them for our own
to love and to care for till death do us part
what ever happened to the love that was there
what happened to treating them like family
Save me
I can no longer help myself
My shattered soul lies on the ground
Save me
They're all enchanted with the wealth
There is no way up, only down
Save me
My products lie upon the shelves
I’ll Never See Your Face Again
I close my eyes and try to remember your face
Every detail
Every shade
The pain swells up as I know
I will never see that face again.
What are dreams?
Childish fantasies come alight?
the fabric of imagination - a seam?
Are they tears of the moon?
the effects of a fever?
hallucinations that have bloomed?
Some may not know it
Because they can’t show it
Dogs feel, taste, touch, and smell
But compared to humans not as well
We hurt, as do they
They know when we are just putting on a play
We write slow, you teach fast. If i don't answer, don't move on.Want us to understand fast, but you don't have patience to go slow enough for our brains to register everything. We are not all smart or fast learners. Time is good for us.
Bacteria, Amoeba
What disgusting creatures
Forest beings, forest fires
Homes destroyed
"Free to roam in the initial chaotic aftermath"
Who cares?
Your pet dog—so precious
Soft, silky fur. Large, pleading eyes. Warm, cuddly bodies. Genlte, rhythmic heart beats. Happy, care-free tail wags. Obedient, loving demeanors. Trusting, dependable friends. How could anybody hurt such sweet, innocent puppies and kittens?
You live, you die, you laugh, you cry
That is how life goes, but i wonder why
Some say it is like a roller coaster
It takes you to your highs and lows
Others say it is like a journey
Why do they look at us like that?
Full of love, patience, forgiveness
Why do we take this for granted?
They suffer at our hands,
Yet continue to look at us in devotion.
Shouldn’t we return that look?
A small bird with broken wings
Left to die by all that pass
A soul which once fluttered across the great expanse of sky
Now lies twisted and broken upon the ground
And I am left to ask
With my neck in the collar
and the collar to the leash,
I have nothing to live for,
except eating loose meat.
I once had a mother,
she understood me,
Now I have nothing
What's that there?
What's that here?
It was near, now it just disappear!
What did it do?
What did it went off to?
It sure flew, but I think it likes you!
It just past by.
I miss fighting with you to see your 'I told you so smile" I know I wont see it for awhile I miss the look in your eye when you know what you're doing You always do whatever you want to
It shouldn't be bothering me this much
I'm considered a grown man to most people
but damn
My synapses are imploding
It's not heartache
and soul crushing is too
dramatic
It's odd
The forest was entirely still,
The deer stood alert and silent,
They knew the day had come,
To face the hunters who were violent.
Gunshots came and gunshots went,
Each animal fearful of its own fate,
Dark, wet brown,
covered with an
orange, pink, and blue
beach towel.

I rush off to school and forget to fill your bowl with food
But still you love me
I stomp past you angrily to my room because I had a bad bad, ignoring your affections
But still you love me
Dawn emerges just above the horizon. The night lingers in the black sky. And she dances with her twin, nipping necks With white teeth and the moon’s foggy breath appears to us brightly. Pale eyes peer up to mine, smiling. Cold water clouds my vie

Street racers are out driving
Exhaust gas in air
They say im man's best freind,
But if that's true why are they doing this?
Why do they hit me like they do?
All i've done to them is love them,
I've protected their kids and now this!
I start out at a run, being pulled right along;
I sure hope we slow down before very long!
We come to a mailbox and come to a stop
But not after long, we're off at a trot.
A car's coming by! I tug at the leash
Tears well in her eyes as you hit her once more.
She doesn't understand, can't quite comprehend.
What did she do to arouse such anger?
Was it when she barked at that stranger?
Do you love me?
Because I love you
From the moment I saw you
I knew! You're the one
I knew you would take care of me
She approaches, her claws scratch the surface of my heart. Always and forever I tell he r even though it was just the start, she smiles and lays one on me then another, ok ok I say, I know we were made for eachother.

As I sit in this cage and look into your eyes
I am surrounded by my feces and all of these flies
You look at me without sympathy
As I yearn for some love and affection
My fur is all knotted and my nails over grown
If I die old,
Bury me in the ground.
A headstone? No need!
Because I’m just a hound.
Please don’t give me
A funeral procession.
And to my pups,
Give all my possessions.
When you drive your car and your engine burns fuel,
Do you know what it does to me?
When you turn your heater on in the cold winters,
Even when you purchase groceries,
My stomache rolls,
My thoughts bounce on and off the walls.
I'm not sick,
I'm not content.
Some days I fly higher than the sky itself.
Other days I feel like I am plummeting to the ground.
My one true call to nature, to life, to existence
I love the sound of Opera and someday you’ll hear me singing it
Because I can
They won’t hold me back
I write because I‘m human: simple as that
I take a deep breath in,
Out,
Readying myself.
Strap my helmet tight,
get my kneepads on,
"I'm going out!"
I yell,
hoping I was heard,
and start my day.
Walking through life,
fingers run down your coat.

you aren’t absorbing the love I’m rubbing to your bone.

The hurt,
It wakes me.
I am the feline,
Across the road,
coddled by mange's kiss.
Who am i?
I am he,
The pitbull,
His head is bopping
His legs be hopping
The amount of love from him is countless
Never had a friend so precious
Our bond is strong and endless
Everytime I see him after a school semester my heart is gracious
You are the reason why i open my eyes,You are the one who makes me breathe,You are the reason of my survival,You are the one behind my smile...You taught me how to enjoy every moment,And what is the meaning of tolerance,You have made me strong eno

Why I write
is simply so
when my words sprout wings

i usually have a wall that reaches the sky, but you, you really made it disappear.
there was something about you that really made me take down that wall, brick by brick.

Compassionate describes her heart
A simple girl, just trying to do her part
Such a small sacrifice she makes
Simple: just no eggs in her cake
I hear the excuses, they are never ending
I think of her as a card board cut out.You know as if she's a puppet of what she thinks perfection is.I ask myself..What really defines perfection?What defines beauty?
A way of expressing my thoughts
without getting caught
A way of taking my anger
and letting it rot.
A way of soaring above the world
while letting happiness unfurl.
Poetry isn't a hobby; in reality,
I have a rose for you.
It isn't perfect.
The stem is broken
and a few of the petals have wilted.
But its aroma is still there
alive and present
as it has always been.
But I cannot keep it
God made creatures
Both big and small
What he didn't intend
Was for us humans to neglect them
To abuse them and leave them
Take a stand to stop this cruelty against these poor creatures

Georgie sits by the gate looking all around.
He knows it's getting late and she's no where to be found.
The cars keep driving by, but noone seems to care.
He begins to wonder why she would want to leave him there.
Today I wait for help to come
I'm lying in this cage
With darkness overshadowing me
I need the help to set me free
I want to reach the sky.
I'm sitting here in this cage

I saw the best equestrians during my lifetime created by hard work and perseverance,
Bonds with equines of all breeds and colors, along with friends who come and go, but, only the true bonds will last a lifetime,

Only trying to express,
But i digress.

Grate my brain to rid it of pain

And you've never had a pet I waited for you to sleep.Then ran away;

Swiftly he prances across the ocean like desert in the pale moon light,
His head carried proud , his tail carried high,
As he floats across the sand,
Barely making a sound.
His amber sunset eyes glare upwards
Seeing past things as they are
For what they should be;
A soulful countenance.
Coat well-worn, white, gray,
Why do you hate me?
What did I Do?
I remember,
"Animals to good Homes"
That's what the sign said.
So why did you get me?
What have I done to deserve this pain?
How could you dare eat that meat?
Animals have feelings too; just like us
How would you feel if you also got beat?
Just like a mime, they never make a fuss
They are Ugly Betty; no one does care
Cat.
A domesticated housepet.

Why did you adopt me to only tie me up to a tree....At first when I was a puppy and small I would receive love from all but now that I'm growen there's no love to be showen .......You use to call my name and take me to the park for a game of fetch
The morning sun rises
The world begins to wake
I think of you and start to shake
If only life wasn't filled with surprises.

Who would go out of their way to find me?
Who was looking for me this whole time?
You came back and finally found me again,
But where have you been this whole time?
What took you so long?
I am a frog
With no dog
Because that dog
Ran off my log
Even though I chased my dog
Off my log
In the fog
Now I see a hog
About to jog
To my log
To eat a frog

Terrifying noises
Chase me from my home
But as I run away
Faster still they come
Their henchmen are behind me
Nipping at my heels
Their howling voices snarling
How each of them feels
The words unspoken between me and you, They have the same depth as a city pool. I wait and wait as time flies bye, Thinking about a life full of memories that you left behind.
You and Me togetherNEVER torn apart,When we left each otherWe NEVER grew apart.I Will ALWAYS LOVE You,That Will NEVER change.I Will see you in heavenNo matter what happens.
I want someone who looks at me like that shelter dog As if they look away for a moment, I'll disappear With eyes so full of thoughts waiting to be spoken With a protective streak as long as I am tall I hope they'd stand in the doorway Just to make

I’m so sorry.
I don’t know what I did.
I didn’t mean to upset you.
I loved you with everything.
I’m so sorry
If I was in your way
I only wanted to see you
Being with you made me happy.

Not a rock will be found
In the sands of the heartland
Bunches of grass will twist and bend
In the whipping of the wind
Cattle low in the shallow valleys
Antelope run through the flats
I look at you as you sit there with tears flowing down your face. You look up into my eyes, and at that moment tears started flowing down my face. I knew what you were feeling because I had the same feeling.
I bury my face in tufts of soft golden hairInhaling that unique combination of dog and fresh air and pond water and oatmeal shampoo.I sigh a warm breath of relief as I melt into the comfort of his presence.
It all started one day when I was stuck in my room
because with no friends to play with
I prayed to god that an answer would come soon
walked in my sister with something I thought as a myth
Chained in shackles
Nowhere to run
Day and Night
Empty, Hungry
Dry, Thirsty
Harsh tone
Poisoned words
Sometimes a shout
Sometimes a fist
Animals homeless,
Bleeding and unloved.
Only showing bones and skin.
No families, food or shelter,
They live their lives alone.
I Am I am confused and naïve, not a diamond, but a pearl in the rough. I’m a pearl as white as it can be, but I do not shine for just everyone to see. (My Vietnamese name, Ngoc, means “hidden pearl.”) I wonder when it will be my turn.
Such a beautiful face.
Now sad and twisted
And so out of place.
All on her own.
You cast her out into the night.
Hungry and cold she roams.
Why did you give her such a fright?
All on her own.
She stays when every one else goes
She is the loyalest thing I know
And when it comes to it, I know she will never go
When I'm sad she makes me happy
Bullets born from our sorrowful tears,
cold as ice and clear as crystal
Fire through the dense barricade of the emerald-green,
leave-covered, tree-filled canopy
As an electrified bolt of lightning
I searched and sought and nosed about,
I could not find my little trout.
He wasn’t on my sisters bed,
I’m pretty sure by now he’s dead.
I smelt a smell in the kitchen,
It smelt a little like cooked pigeon.
Chained as if i were am animal

Here's a story about a cup
lost and lonely was the cup
we found it sitting all alone
Then someone said please pick it up
And so they did and washed that cup
They washed the cup and let it dry
TO MY PARENTS
From birth to death,
From daycare to college,
From crushes to relationships,
From little league to college athletics...
I fell in love with your smile;
It was deep, rich and vibrant,
Like sunlight that tickles and warms the coral
Hiding beneath cool blue-green waters.
Your teeth were like shy pearls
Dogwood seeds blow through empty kennels
bogged by bleach and Dawn
If you walk with purpose, you’re invisible
to the Catahoula Leopard dog and his howl
Hannah stops at every piece of parking lot debris
I can't speak.
Not because I don't want to,
Or because I'm to weak.
There's something keeping me
from doing so.
I don't know what it is,
but its around my throat.
Making it hard to breathe.
Never knowing
where we’re going.
From the depths
we glow.
Go with the flow.
The current
our only guide.
Only want a hug.
Why does no one like us?
The stinging,
the pain.
Once you realize that their just like us
you really don't have to make such a big fuss
they breathe sleep and eat just like me

Expectation is experience laced with arrogance.
I would be lying to you if I told you that I expected this.
Because of this, the impact was cushioned by a pathetic surrender to a philosophy of acceptance.
I'm tired of my heart hurting.
tired of my eyes burning.
nothing ever seems to go right
so i stay up drenched all night
in the tears you bought upon my face
and the hurt brought to me from this place
Dashing left, dashing right.
Through the trees, through the night.
The sound is near, the woods are hushed.
Barks ring out, flowers crushed.
Sounds of the noble hunt flow
and as the sounds of the dog grow
I’m listening to the cool night
air of northern Michigan and
Bandit stirs awake.
The crumpling poly tarp and his
muscles stretch before he
pads over to the rocky

You are like a sunbeam at midnight:
a chance encounter.
Your breath on my skin
is a sweet summer memory.
Together, in all kinds of weather,
we are a perfect pair.
You smell of sweet grass,

He stands on the corner of dark lonely avenue and waits.
Waits for what? I don’t know.
Maybe for a miracle or a chance to be forgiven because he knows he hasn’t been living right.
Time flies way too fast
There is no reverse
Youth is fleeting
My childhood is in pieces
Is this what reincarnation is for?
Re-do
Do over
Can I take everything I have done back?
Birds, do not sing so blatantly
When one in cold lies secretly,
When one lies dead upon some floor --
My Elsie, gone forevermore.
I've been here for 2 years so far,
And I have the greatest owner.
He’s kind, and he loves me.
He gives me attention every day.
When he comes home,
I would lick him to no end.
I've never been more alive,
Bears and turtles,
struggling in the winter cold on the northeastern edge of the city.
The darkness wet rain
storms and storms
they shiver.
But wonderful Spiderman delivers a Gift.
A warm dry web
Platinum blonde hair. Rosy red cheeks. Bright blue eyes. Always playing with everyone's animals.
I'm a little taller. Hair a little longer. Eyes a little darker. I still want to help animals.
Apollo, a bird of mine,
He is noisy much of the time.
Unless he's sleeping, sitting on me.
Unless he's busy, eating or drinking.
Then he's yelling for me.
I barely get out of the van.
You don't know me; we've yet to meet.
But you seem to know all about me.
I'm mean and vicious; I'd sooner attack than eat.
I don't care who I bite- I'm not the least bit picky.
This is why you don't want me here.
What is it to be humane?
Being characterized by kindness, mercy, or compassion?
We give ourselves to much credit,
when we leave our mark in a most abominable fashion.

Unlike the human she stands on four legs.

Loyal companions,
And Selfless animals.
These are the adjectives
that describes a dog.
Some are more or less
of the descriptions used
but none the less
Why, why
Am I here lying in bed,
Wondering if you ever really loved me,
Each passing day you grow farther and farther away.
Whatever happened the father always being there,
Or do I just not me shit to you.
If humans were animals and animals were humans,
Maybe then we would understand their pain.
Take a look into their eyes as they are put in cages filled with sadness and mistreatment,
He growls,
And I wonder:
What happened to him
When he was just a pup
To make him think
That he has to be mean.
It started out as punishment,
and I deserved it.
A kick here, a punch there, a night without supper.
I learned the rules quickly;
it would kill me to disappoint my humans.
Arachnid terror, dark creature of the night
that haunts the cupboards like a blackened wight
this fantastical creation who we appoint king of fears
is hardly the creature that truly appears
They are creatures just like you and me,
That can't speak or defend them self.
People treat them crudely,
And that doesn't include myself.
Animals are helpless against abuse,
but that's not an excuse.
Poor little bunny,
you ran out in front.
Fast as the blowing wind,
the only thing on your mind was getting across.
Quincy Quincy
My sweet puppy
Sleep and snuggle
Then cause trouble
Sleep sound little baby boy
You are the family's pride and joy
Mans best friend
Free and wild
Runs like a child.
Loved by all men.
Not quite the hen.
Trapped in a box,
Awaiting its demise,
Conscious of surprise.
Mass production of the living
Of the white veined flesh that many devour
From the helpless weeping animals
That were once free from the laws of the world,
And the cruelty of its makers
I knew the day,
I saw those bright green eyes full of love,
Just wanting an home and someone to love her back,
My days would not be the same.
So I wish for you now,
Do you think this is funny? Do find this amusing?
Yesterday it was boiling oil, today it is knives
Did I do something wrong to deserve your abusing?
What made you want to take my darlings’ lives?
I once flew above treetops through endless sky
But in this small wire cage I can’t even fly
My claws used to catch prey on the forest floor
But now I cannot hunt like I did before
As I stepped outside
from my cool home into the heat,
the bright light made me squint
my eyes, and I called out his name...
You may feel sorry
For the humans
Because you can actually see
Their pain and
Their suffering
You are human, so
You can connect with them
But when non-human animals
A dove is as white as snow,
Looks more beautiful than a crow,
In weddings brings tears of joy on one’s face,
Can beat any other bird in a beauty race,
At funerals triggers sadness,
Giant anteaters dancing a tango
Twirling and stomping to a strange beat;
An old growth of ponderosa pine as their dance floor,
With a trio off on the sidelines watching.
Abandoned mansion on the shores of an island,
I am an animal lover, I'd rather an animal to a lover.
Animals love you unconditionally, not just traditionally.
Animals help lower your blood pressure and don't cause pressure.
Animals are wonderful not just plentiful.
What do you see when you look at me?
Do you see confidence?
Do you see potential?
Or do you see ignorance
And a showoff
But do you really know what you're seeing
Maybe it's just your imagination
I sing my pages to sleep
ruffle their hair with my breath
Shh
I will never wash their blood clean
They bruise into my veins
I will water them down and leave them on my skin
oh, the joy
As scentless as you appear to be, you are full of diverse aromas to me. As my perfume covers up your silky fur, all I hear you murmur is a soft "purr." Fat, similar to meatballs, you have the world's biggest bluest eyeballs.
The Hunter’s Dilemma
The hunter is a proud person
Proud of where he comes from
Proud of what he does
And proud of what he has done.
What are we to them? Clearly something whose soul
Should be ripped from their body.
They see our vertical spine, and decide the differences,
or even similarities in our physical structure has determined
I woke one day to a wonderful surprise,
I found all the humans and their creations to be gone.
I do not know what brought on their demise,
But I canter with pride, for we will live long.
This world is sublime
Small as me
low from the rest
warm as the fireplace
a nose as cold as the water penguins swim in
a touch so soft one could get lost in
eyes so round-pure
ears to hear forever
It's funny how you say mean
Its funny like it's sad
That when you look at the picture
All you see is the breed
All you ever hear is the aghast whisper of the word pit
The word rot
Bull
Box
(poems go here) Turtle
Green and slow
But smart with lots of joy
A turtle has a vision
Where it sees wonderful things
But it has one mission
To become part of the sea
More than meets the eye
Floating precariously,
Body beckoning:
"Who needs to sting like a bee,
When you could just float like me"
Clippity clop.
Chip chop.
Down goes the prey.
Grind. Ground.
Ingredient found!
No longer free to play.
Simmer. Stew.
Solid. It's true!
The colored gelatin forms.
Slippity slurp.
Horses galloping through the open plains
The grass cruntching beneath them as they run
The wind blowing back their long shiney manes.
Oh the amazingly wonderful fun.
There's nothing better then a wild mustang
As a rudder the fish use their tail
It aids them in guiding their sail
But if you were to ask
Does it fail at its task
Ask the tail of a whale can it sail.
As I fly through the dazzling sky,
I watch as life goes by.
With busy streets and lots of people, I notice the ignorance that occurs toward the beauty of nature, placing my kind in lots of danger.
You look around
As eyes just like yours
do the same
All wondering
the same thing
Nothing matters

Your problems
seem minuscule

He has razor sharp teeth and the autumn brown eyes you have ever seen.
His lips are covered in blood and his body is skinny and muscular
He’s unbearably strong and dangers of every since of the word
Listening to the sound of the "Hand"
I gaze in amazment
How can one gesture be a word?
I gaze in amzement
The whites of her eyes flash
Toward the sounds outside the door.
The pounding of someone’s steps
Clopping up the stairs sends her body
Into trembles. Her leg aches in the place
Round and round the track i reace the horses dust flying in my face, the leader than begins to slow, now its my time in the show. Im a throughbred.

I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
People are cruel.
Ducklings, goslings, and chicks are hatched each spring
to be dyed and put in a child's Easter basket.
They are sold off for the temporary joy of their size and faces.
They grow up too.
I dream of day,
Where there is no pain
Where all of God's creatures
Are treated the same
I dream of a day where people open their eyes
to see what they're doing
destroying their lives.
What have I done?
To deserve this cold floor.
What have I done?
To be slammed in the face by that door.
What have I done?
To deserve this short rope.
What have I done?
I'm about to give up hope.
I had this dog once,
He was like a brother to me,
Whenever I felt like a dunce,
Laying in his spot is where he'd be.
We love you more than we even love ourselves.
We live to be loved.
Your attention and loving hands embrace us.
Your actions train us to be good.
Society has honored us.
Society has shunned our kind.
There was a time when all my hope was gone
I was kicked to the curb without doing wrong
My owner had way too many of us to give care
She was sick, had a warehouse of us somewhere
"Don't hit her, Daddy!"
cries the little girl
Daily she sees this
Daily she hurts
The poor animal she loves
laying there, abused
She has no clue why he does it
She only knows how sad she feels
We As Americans will help out the less fortunate
We as Americans will help out people who have nothing
We as Americans will help out all people who are dealing with homelessness
I touched a deer yesterday.
First its nose then its cheek.
I looked into its glass eyes,
Sadly empty and dead,
Placed when they stuffed its head,
Then mounted it as a trophy.

and i grow old
and weary in waiting.
Caged and helpless
Desperate and Alone
Confused and senseless
Wishing to go home
In a dark room
All filled with the wild
Everything filled with gloom
Scared like a child
I was a good boy,
Thankful and proud,
I wasn’t too nosey
And I wasn’t too loud.
What had I done
To be pushed to the ground
Numerous miles
From my beloved town?
Rain covers my pallet in purifying drops
My tresses are swollen, bleeding out their tops
Bewitched by the wind, and bleeding out their tops
Open the door, pitch black
Something pounces, giving me a heart attack
Long tongue, licks me in the face
It’s Ruger
I lost my llama, so I called up my Mama,
She said, “Stop your drama!”
Look for the llama; are you sure it’s gone?
Is it on the lawn? I checked there already.
Vegan, a what? Cult? A kinda Fruit? Is that in the Middle East? (heard it all)
No meat, no animal milk or eggs!?!
A freak, a hippy, an anarchist,
A radical extremist, must be sickly,
You were so sweet
ready to be
loved by no else
except by me
The door opened wide
you were free
but you ran only to me.
Your tail wagging fiercely
you were happy as could be
They're quiet and calm, blending into the waves of the ocean shore.
Shells hard and tough like stone.
Not intimidating or threatening, just there.
There living and roaming.
There to make the sand its friend and
Animals have feelings too,
This is why we should not beat them with a shoe.
Animals should be treated like family,
Just sit back and see.
Animal Cruelty
It’s a subject that angers me
They’re beings with feelings
Where’s the humanity?
“A dog is a man’s best friend,” they say
Yet they continue to be abused every single day
Listen to Me for once in your life!
You don't know what this pain really feels like.
No one knows what I'm saying to you.
All you hear is a bark or two.
I lie neglected all day, every day.
It sits as a dead rose, laying against ashes.
The wings are broken glass.
The memories in the little head are just dust in the wind.
The scars that were hidden now show more as times go by.
Oh, valiant friend in my past
Your memories have come at last!
Eyes, bright and shining,
Never dull or whining.
Rough times came, but you were there
Drying my tears and looking fair.
Being alive is a gift yet we like to make life hurt what can they do innocent and frail but all we see is something to sell and what is it you ask violence against animals and its written throughout our past but yet they love us even throughout th
Slanted, sly
the cat comes up from the barn's stone side
in a clearly evoked mode of attack.
I watch from behind the screen closure,
reclined, reading the paper.
The mouse or bird or rabbit cannot be seen,
It didn't happen, the accident's causation,
the hit and run no one reports, no one slows to stop or
go out of their way to help the cause of animals struck,
deer and racoon and fox and squirrel
