Machines Feeding Machines Into MachinesA Poem by Brittany
Vacuum-sealed and shipped the butchers seperate your anatomy with a steely grin fat and flesh are arranged in packs served to be economically friendly
Your blood is on my hands and I can't feel my feet as I wonder what it felt like, to live a life to end in slaughter
You're reduced to 4-digit codes
Your parts are in the machine
Down the belt, your glistening loins and bellies, and shoulders gristle down the center fat to the left
A tight plastic place so you won't spoil up the cylinders
Stamp your tag
You're on sale this week down the ramp, back in my hands
I put you on a rack
and do it again © 2010 Brittany |
