Looking Away While We Chew

Animal suffering
is the root of our diet,
no matter how much
we try to deny it

We say that we care -
well, some of us do -
but most of us just
look away while we chew

The thought of their bleeding
isn’t as fun
as this double cheeseburger
wrapped in a bun

So we ignore their pain,
their cries, their sorrow,
because we will still
want to eat them tomorrow
