Tulips, the untold truth of it
for a minute
I could think of no-thing
on gods green earth
which had a worse existence
than the chicken
then thought of the tulip
at least the chicken
has a quick turn of death
But the tulip is grown,
then harvested screaming,
thrown into to a bundle
then shiped on life support
sold in the mart
put in a vase
because they look so
fkn beautiful
while they die in pain

I always say I'd rather come back as a roach then a chicken. Poor things, as I eat a wing.

Like vegans crying animal rights
Cruelty
Cruelty
Yet having not a second thought to the plant based life they slaughter on a daily basis.

the ugly truth of the beauty grown, sold and bought.
Deep, provocative and evocative ink dear sir Lep.

The chicken is actually a personal symbol of courage for me. The chicken must be brave in the face of its numerous predators, and only in fear can we know our true nerve.
But it did just occur to me that they can probably increase their chances of survival by tiptoeing through the tulips.

Hullo and welcome
Terribly sorry I missed this, SonderNinja
I like your thinking, 'cept even with the bravery it'll eventually end up fast food. I do think it is one of the most abused species on the planet
thank you much for your presence and thought print

Re. Tulips, the untold truth of it
it’s as if beauty & naïvety is a crime .. & who better gentle poet of all the mostly rough n tough du.. can even ever think of the plight of a simple rustic beauteous tulip than you Lepz .. & that struck me hard when you put in such life & death .. black & red emotive .. to the tulip .. talks much of the heartlessness & violence & lies & dramatics the (in)human(un)kind is in .. kaliyuga as we say..
sure the the hope is there .. in your write from the writer that exudes such soulfulness .. & many such kind souls .. waiting for that yuga when that righteousness shines in cleansing of such lies ... the Satya yuga as we call.. when only just the truth of love pure love is what shall be .. sorry for much wordisms I scribble in your space .. but reading you after long made me talk more:) you n your writes inspire as ev friend xx
