Humane Society

JESUS BETANCOURT 1955 (New York)

Rhymed
I no longer visit a Zoo
It's like an animal prison
Imagine if the caged animal was you
Captured and imprisoned for no reason

Roaming wild in unpopulated country
Living life as nature intended
Till hunters and poachers collecting bounty
Ensure wildlife freedom has ended
