The Puppy Mill Owner

Forced into a cage and locked up
outside for the night,
The poor dog shivers in the cold, crying, out of sight--
Callous calculated cruel acts against God's creation:
It's all about making money and reckless recreation--
The very least of the least are mistreated for gain,
And the attitude of abuse spreads like a disease of disdain...
A deal went bad and the puppy mill owner is arrested one night:
He lies to the police and tries keep his business out of sight--
The puppy mill owner exudes hatred for all of God's creation...
He finally explains he just does it for the money, and recreation--
But--if he had to do it all over he would do it again, for gain,
And the puppy mill owner displays his attitude of dark disdain:
Charged with multiple counts of animal cruelty he is forced into a cage:
Ironically the puppy mill owner yells and almost snarls--reaping his rage--
Caught again.
