Down the Meat Aisle

 

We carnivores
of an alleged sensitive bent
rip into barbecued flesh
glazed in selective ignorance..

Skimming past the cruelty
inflicted on the grilled carcass
we are currently devouring..

Our indignant vegan friends
who ride shotgun with angels
skewer our hypocrisy
with their anti meat arguments
as we respond...

"Pass the ketchup"..

Though deep down

in the clogged bowels

of our lost conscience

we know that everybody

from our whole predatory

dominant species

is destined to be

the tasty prey

for ravenous worms

feasting on our mortality...

Karma patiently rides a life cycle
