Poem by Sherman Alexie


I saw a man swerve his car
And try to hit a stray dog,
But the quick mutt dodged
Between two parked cars

And made his escape.
God, I thought, did I just see
What I think I saw?
At the next red light,

I pulled up beside the man
And stared hard at him.
He knew that’d I seen
His murder attempt,

But he didn’t care.
He smiled and yelled loud
Enough for me to hear him
Through our closed windows:

“Don’t give me that face
Unless you’re going to do
Something about it.
Come on tough guy,

What are you going to do?”
I didn’t do anything.
I turned right on the green.
He turned left against traffic.

I don’t know what happened
To that man or the dog,
But I drove home
And wrote this poem.

Why do poets think
They can change the world?
The only life I can save
Is my own.

Animal and Children Abuse

Animal abuse. Have people compared it to child abuse before? I personally think its rather similar since in both cases, the victim is rather small and has a disadvantage. I believe there is a teeny tiny difference between a human baby and a baby animal.

Raising awareness is important. And of course, it's not only about animals, also for other things; racism, child abuse, discrimination, bullying, suicides etc. All of these are important and can cost the life of someone.

Anyway, i believe that the problem of animal cruelty is more significant. Domestic violence..there are escapes and children can ask for help. But say animals, if you lock them in a cage, they wouldn't know how to escape. They have no way of escape. We think that they have no emotions, no feelings and a bred by insensitive capital owners to earn money and for people to enjoy their fast food.

If we put ourselves in their feet, i'm sure we would not want, say, Giants, to keep us in a field like we're a herd of sheep so we can be cooked in their stew for dinner.

Stand On Your Feet and Speak Out

Unity.

Holding signs and yelling protesting remarks is past our time. We should stop waiting for people to change their ways. No matter how much we encourage them, those who have had the determination to change their ways would already have done so. It is time we do some action. Some life changing activist action. I've always been a supporter of animal rights, me being an animal lover since i was a kid.

There has always been something i don't really grasp. Animals and Humans. Our different rankings. Before they can't speak our language?

If you see a kid being murderd, a woman being raped, a man being robbed, would you  allow these heinous crimes to continue without interfering? Yes. I'm sure most of you would. Maybe not indirectly, but you would call the police.

So what's the difference if it's an animal? Why should animals be treated any differently? Do you really think they don't feel pain? No. That isn't true. They are exactly like us.

People are born, animals are killed. But there are growing numbers of activists and vegans. We have to turn our mindset, our determination and our love for animals into weapons.
