How can you slaughter them?


How can you slaughter them?

The poor, hopeless babies

The weary, weak elders

All the souls in between

 

How can you sleep at night,

Knowing that you are causing this suffering?

The meat you digest and excrete out

Is what's destroying us all

 

How can you argue,

When you can't conjure any facts?

Opinions stream from your self-important mouth

Blatantly ignoring those who object
