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.

How could you do it, Nigel? please just tell me how?
when I'd already forgiven you for flogging that dead cow
(I apologize my friends, but have decided to delete the rest of the poem in an attempt of self-censorship!!)
