Thick Skin
Elephants in chains training for rides or photos bullhooks prodding neck author photo _ Tanzania Author Note: Elephants are sentient beings who live in families. Humans kill them for ivory and skin and feet to be made into tables. Humans steal their babies and chain them, alone, stretched out to break their spirit. They prod them with bullhooks or burn them, starve them to get them to follow orders. Some religions paint them and parade them for religious ceremonies. Humans want to make money from them through photo opportunities and rides. Sometimes, they prod a stick sideways into their sensitive trunk and give them a paintbrush to sell the painting (it is painful). No care is taken for their feet or hide or feelings. Don't help cruelty to continue to the gentle elephant. Mostly, it is Asian elephants, but African ones are also captured. We are slowly ending animal circuses.

What Is "The Life in Verse?". AI-Generated.
Introduction Life is a collection of moments - some joyful, some painful, and many beautifully mundane. Poetry takes these moments and transforms them into art, weaving words into rhythms and emotions into metaphors. But what does it mean to live "The Life in Verse"? Simply put, it's about embracing poetry as a lens through which we view, process, and celebrate life.
