Ode to Meat




The world called Earth is a horrible place
Wars, famine and thieves fill this wondrous space
Living on earth is almost unbearable
Only one thing could make it more terrible

It’s awful to wake myself up in the morning
and drag myself to a class that’s incredibly boring
I hate the sound of my ringing alarm clock
There is so much in the world to hate and mock

But there is one thing that is truly great
And it carries with it a wonderful trait
It’s chewy, and tough and a wonderful treat
What would life be like, If I didn’t have meat

So this ode is to the food that keeps me alive
If I were a hippie, how would I survive?
Eating tofu, twigs, leaves, and fruit
Life would suck, and I’d be a tree hugger to boot

It’s not like we are a society of agrarians
So why the hell would you be a vegetarian
Cows are ugly and chickens are dumb
So who would chose to live life in a meatless slum?

I feel the need to be honest, and not at all vague
I wouldn’t care if all animals died of the plague
As long as pigs, chickens, and cows remain
Seafood as well, fish and shrimp bring me gain

This poem is for hippies, I’m not gonna lie
I’ll be eating meat ‘till the day that I die
So don’t say “save the animals” to me
Just go smoke weed and live in a tree



HOT DOG!
