IT
It breaks up families it causes unrest
It has a huge appetite lightly dressed
It blocks the senses it's a tunnel vision
It lies it smirks it is the worst decision
It's there with every prideful goodbye
It's there in the how the when and why
It's pervasive it puts you under a spell
It's a monster a demon right out of hell
It's always the winner it will never miss
It's out to get you I am telling you this
It's a motherfucker it's not your friend
It's your nemesis it wins you in the end
It feeds on you when you need a taste
It has no mercy as it lays you to waste
It is the farmer and you are the cow
It loves how you are reading this now

I sense a much deeper point here to do with gender identity, equality even.

This poem kind of wrote itself. As it went on, i got a better idea of where i wanted to take it, but it ended up going where it wanted to and so it was co written by my subconscious probably.
Therefor you very well may have a good point Billy
Or i could just be describing a monster named IT
Thanks :-)

Cattle will be cattle. They won't milk themselves though, watch out for the farmer.
Am happy you like it, thank you :-)
