stuffed pride

 Dart in the heart this 
severed head hangs 
dead those glass eyes
replace the sight of 
horror, depicted as art

Without compassion 
sends a shivering tear 
in fear to the floor

Stuffed with a cruel 
sense of pride this 
creature has died .

Dear Ziggy

Thought I commented on this one, or it has disappeared. Oh well. I have to say, I do not get any one who has cruelty to any animals on their agenda, and no, it is not art. Great write. Well done. Lyz.
