Wool Not, Cracking The Shell

WOOL NOT

*

Not a frock
fabricated from a flock
of sheep too early fleeced
.. sheep unclad in the freeze

*
Footnote: Anthrax was once called
wool sorters' disease..
it stays in the soil for
long long times
Smallpox was called kine pox
or cow pox.. until the meat
industry? objected

CRACKING THE SHELL

*

The dawn sky looks like
a fertilized egg...
sending forth tentacles of
red life... soon to crack the
shell of night

I stopped eating eggs after I cracked one into the skillet..
and saw the hot metal sizzling with blood, a beak, and claws

The average egg is
275 to 300 mg of artery clogging animal fat
32 hours a chicken was in a jail 3 ft by 1 ft with 8 other
factory farmed captive birds
120 gallons of production water
42 to 50% of all food poisoning fatalities
