What do you think this poem is about?

She is a murderer....

She is a murderer
A merciless killer
She has 10 to her count
How cruel her account

Drug them with chloroform
To devil she now transform
Pinned them with nail
Like prisoner without bail

A pith and they paralyze
Now she starts to analyze
With knife chest torn apart
Closely she examined his heart

Blood flowing from the vein
He struggled all in vain
The poor frog accepts its fate
Cruel this deed I hate

I wished this frog was human
Why no experiments on man
To study why we kill animals
This deed made us all animals

See how many frogs we sacrifice
To make human a superior race
For knowledge why kill a frog
How tragic the fate of the frog

    Frog legs are cut, tinned and sent to foreign countries to be eaten. After cutting they throw it out, while it dies crying. Many injustice is being done to animals before beheading them for their flesh to be eaten. Will this poem change the hearts of those murderers? A million dollar question.
