The cow never asked anything because she can’t speak
In our language or your language but she can speak in
This way and that way and every way except our way
Which means we should cut her up and eat her because
Obviously that means she can’t feel and all that sort of stuff
Like love and dance because cows can’t say ow or no or
Lets take advantage of the chickens because they don’t understand
That we’re going to digest them they love their wings
But we take them because they can’t love and we want wings and sometimes
It’s good to do these things because we are man and we have
This sort of self-spoken right to kill everyone and everything
Except now we have laws but we can still kill the pigs and birds
And take the fish and sometimes it makes me so sad when I see
What we are and what we have become and I want to be that
Little fawn that you shoot so I can look up at you and say
I love you so that maybe they would be able to understand this
Selfless act is that we have the power and can do this and that
With whatever it is we’re given and that we are who we are
By what we do with it but obviously so many
People don’t think twice about ms cow and mrs hen that lays
Their eggs and ends up being dinner tomorrow night but it’s alright
Because they are just animals and can’t say ow or no
Or can’t dance or love or laugh or think or rub your back
And tell you how beautiful you are because you’ve never probably
Even seen them with their heart but they might have had a name or a life
And why do we have the right to kill them because really when we
Raise the blade we have killed ourselves and whatever it is
That pumps our blood and feelings into the same hole of wideness
That are broken hearts and forgotten dreams and glassless windows
Which are really just open doors to some dark place because
We eat miss rainbow trout and mr baby pig because we are higher
And better and obviously that’s what you do when you’re in power
But we never realize we’re eating ourselves away with this pain we
Give to these beings that are our brothers and sisters so someone please
Give us all the power and strength to love freely everyone that is
Someone that is breathing and stop this pain that we all feel and must
Reciprocate on those who cannot speak our language and let us all
Take these classes so that we may soon converse in the present tense
In all the languages of the world and the one language that we all understand
And sometimes even fear which is love
