Siaom,
I understand you may have a deep-seated aversion to eating meat. I have no problem with that, in fact I have no problem with other people's diets at all. But you do, and it is poisoning your poetry.
I feel you cross the line here, your aversion to meat becomes morbid, and you liken a baby to a cemetery.
Wouldn't it be enough for you to keep your own body a temple free from the sin of eating meat, and not inflict such gruesome feelings on others? Live and let live. Respect the habits of others, even if they are directly opposed to yours. Others have a right to be different.
Life is too short to waste it on pointless crusades.

Dear Ken
Much of the community works to capture and jail a human serial killer
... in my opinion it is human chauvinism to ignore human serial killing of animals
Thanks for writing
