Oh - a whimsy! Not meant to be viciously vegetarian - just food for thought? Ha! KTJ X PS - I eat beef till the cows come home!
The Noble Chicken
I
I started as a tiny cell
Or so my parents told me But I meant so much more to them Than any shelf-life sell-by. I busted from my egg one day And strode about the yard Little did I know my way Would be so cruel and hard. I was palmed up by the catcher man His face as blank as Hell As a chick I knew no better But when I think . . . Oh well! He took me to a factory Where all was clean and fine I baulked in admiration - Death was his - not mine! But now I sit in Heaven And wonder about the supper Where someone ate and someone drank Of me - I love you, Papa! No bell will now toll for me I'm here in someone's guts If anyone writes my eulogy They truly must be nuts!
