| Doctor Jabir: Thanksgiving 2016 |
No animal badgers its mate
No animal rats on its friends
No animal sponges on its fellow man.
No animal joins that rat race
Crawling to its job in stinking metal box.
No animal works to outfox life
Worming every possible drop of joy
From the lucky fact of sex.
No animal wolfs down
Drugs and high technology
To weasel its way out of the contract
Life long ago signed with Mister Death.
Without house insurance
Each animal raises young
In its burrow.
Without car insurance
Each animal takes life
As it comes.
Without health insurance
Each animal faces death
Like a man.
