Mickey and Minnie rip

i never thought
it possible,
but i feel bad for mice,
once a menace
appearing
in the dead of night
scurrying across
the kitchen floor,
they now
are a scientist's delight.
poked
and injected,
starved
and overfed,
made addicted to drugs
and alcohol,
cigarettes
and sugar.
their biological sex changed,
and reversed.
blinded
and cut open,
always under the microscope
in the guise
of science and keeping
people healthy
and alive.
