Hen Menstruation Not Required

It is 2019
We invented 
the wheel,
sliced bread,
chairs that fold,
and a way to tell 
who was calling 
before we answered 
the phone 

We walked 
on the moon 

We eradicated 
small pox 

We figured out 
a way to get 
the stickiness 
on both sides 
of the tape 
and still remove
the tape 
from the roll

We made 
a hot dog 
from a pig 
and a cow
and a turkey 
and vegetables
and made them all
taste basically 
the same

We were able 
to take
our telephone 
off the wall,
add a dictionary 
and a calculator,
an encyclopedia,
a thesaurus,
a music player, 
and a camera
and somehow fit it all 
inside our pocket 
and effortlessly take it 
everywhere we go

And yet people 
are still baffled
that you can use
something else
to bind your cookies
besides fucking
chicken eggs
