<u>Flogging a Dead Horse</u>
I like to flog a horse or two,
especially when they're dead,
but the trouble, still, you know,
is how to get them off the bed
without a team of masochists,
using ropes and hoists and pulleys
but now the animal protectionists
(who’re the dreadful beastly bullies)
have put me in a scrape or two
for my mistreating chained-up corpses
- yes, they've plunged me in the dolphin doo
for oral, tense in porpoises.
