VEG RHYME

hungry
ain't the way i been
but mama says
her babe's too thin
and wants to feed me
lotsa meat
pies and cakes
and other sweets
but i don't eat
no fuckin' cow
no bird or fish
no buck or sow
for have you seen
the awful state
of what will end up
on your plate?
 
seems arrogant
to kill a beast
when garden yields
a wholesome feast
 
i'd rather keep
my diet lean
beans and mushrooms
grains and greens
 
and i ain't one
for sugar high
just coffee, black,
one slice of pie
 
that's just enough
to satisfy
and keep me fit
and clear of eye
