Author's note: This poem is dedicated to Professor Barry Spurr who has done so much to help the animal kingdom, and who has, along with others, fought against the injustices which humans inflict upon non-human animals. Professor Spurr was my associate supervisor when I was writing my Doctorate at the University of Sydney. I attended many of his lectures. I was amazed at his knowledge of poetry, and how he could hold the attention of a huge auditorium of students, talking for an hour about poetry without ever referring to notes, just reading wonderful verses and explaining how and why they were constructed.
