Chickens, pigs and cows don't have a chance...


Poem Artwork

As I sit here in this seat,
I have reminders of
this world of meat.
I was cleaning my yard,
something tore a little squirrel apart.
Ate everything except his tail & rear,
what happen was quite clear.


Top of the food chain is man,
but the big cats have another plan,
they'll even make a meal out of man.
In this world of meat,
all creatures have to eat.
It truly is regrettable,
that as a human I'm almost eatable.


At this moment I'm getting ready to eat,
my meal wouldn't be complete,
without my favorite piece of meat.
The animal giving me my tasty thrill,
I did not go out and kill.
My conscience is clear,
even though my steaks are near.
In order to survive in this world of meat,
man has got to be able to eat.
I will not give up my favorite dish,
but maybe tomorrow I will eat fish.

"for me, the life of a lamb is no less precious than the life of a human. i should be unwilling to take the life of an animal for the sake of the human body" - Mahatma Gandhi



Though I'm vegetarian (or so 'they' say).. your poem was - refreshing. It's always good to be comfortable with who u are, as u are. Great works.

Have the chicken barbequing on the charcoal grill as we speak! :)

I love how the flavor of a good briquet savors the juices of those poor bird legs!
Dinner time! HA!
Got me hungry with this one!
Love and Peace~

One...think about it, a very funny thing, an hungry puma chasing a kangaroo for its next meal. If you do, I mean, think of it, your meat meal will taste better because you didn't the running after. (in California was one time kangaroo meat on the menu)
Lick your chops and say hurra!
Bon appetit
