Criminal corruption of natures spirit
Beastly does not humanely describe.
Crimes against man are promptly criticized
While crimes against animals are casually ostracized.
Disgusted with cruelty once it's effects touch their lives
Ignorant to the pleading within the depths of the primates eyes.
Thank God for the Angels that bless these beasts with grace
Shame on the people for demeaning the human race.
Show some compassion and appreciation for natures beauty
Listen to freedoms harmony in the calling of the chimpanzee.
Author notes
I will probably add more lines to this but for now I am too sickend by the story of a man beating and drugging an animal.
I am afraid this write will turn into a hateful biting message to animal abuser/users...
Sorry, I'll try and turn it around for Charlie.

Pan troglodytes is the scientific name for chimpanzee and the personal name given to this specific chimpanzee was Charlie.
The poem is a dedication to him.

While I don't quite understand the title, I agree with what you have to say. Animal cruelty laws in this nation, and many others, are a cruel hoax. While we have the stewardship of the planet in our hands, the rape and torture of that which should be held precious continues.

NO.... just let it rip! speak from the heart, it's about time these animal abusers learned about true respect and God's creation of life...animals have rights too!. What you have written is absolutely justified and the truth.
