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
