They run from a length of nylon
Jumping
Running away
From the hand that feeds them
But it doesn’t stop at a rope around their nose
They just fight harder against the rope
pulling will all their might
1000 pounds is a huge advantage
So
Get a friend
Slowly
Walking
With you
More willing each day
Soon like a friend
A very very big friend
Soon out in the ring
Only to be sold soon after
And then again
At Mcdonalds
