Poster Boards and Rotisserie Chicken
Lying in their pens, eating what they're fed
they grow to be sheep and are used for what they shed
"Don't bite the hand that feeds you" they say again and again
but I refuse to be fed that little pill they call ambien.
Mother oh Mother why don't you love anymore?
A kiss on the cheek and she goes to take more
her eyes go so deep but she's lost in some world
like a child distracted by ribbons and pearls.
