Poem by Neil Cornell.  Art work by: Jogvan A. Hovdanum.  Both of the Faroe Islands.  Voice: Tony Marano of Texas, USA.
 
Disclaimer! This satirical poem is based on the illegal, immoral and hate filled actions of Paul Watson and his Sea Shepherd cronies towards the Canadian sealing industry and an unjustified attack on the Yupik people.  Certain situations are fictitious and have been added to bring levity and mirth to his pathetic attempts to disrupt the legal and sustainable use of natural resources by local people.  

Part of the poem:

The whalers, the sealers, the salmon farms too, all function sustainably: nothing is new.
They follow the laws of their sovereign nations, creating jobs out of good conservation.
So why are some foul folk still doing their best, causing more trouble and raising protest?!
And what of their leader, in his chateau no more? His story goes on, I will pass on this lore!

He lurks in Vermont, now stripped of his violence, still not possessing a captain’s license!
Dirty diapers he changes, they come from his child.  He wipes and he washes, then leaves them in piles!
All alone and forgotten, crying out for attention, promoting himself at a comic book convention!
He whines and complains, he smirks and he scowls, “Not enough of my minions are donating now!”

Obscurity beckoned, the future seemed grim, but Watson’s great ego reached out on a whim.
“I now have a plan to that will come to fruition: I’ll build a sweat lodge, and seek out a vision!”
Appropriation of cultures was nothing so new, to the schemes of the Paulrus and his bad attitude.
“I must generate income, my bank account’s ravaged, by all these lawsuits, I must play Noble Savage!”

Note:  Not enough space allowed by YouTube to post the full poem here.  It will appear on the blog: “Tony’s Thoughts.”
