Snow Boils Lobsters Poem by O Anna Niemus

Snow Boils Lobsters



It was cold snow causing living lobsters
to die by boiling water in Maine.

Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, Republican
senators from Maine, who have voted for war
voted to further the agony of lobsters
dropped alive into boiling water by
voting American poor's tax money,188,000
worth, to the University of Maine Lobster Institute.

Lobsters' revenge comes after their deaths,
when people curl up in agony from
the ptomaine poisoning, anaphylactic
shock and colon bacteria sicknesses
of lobster flesh, a flesh high in mercury, pcb's,
arsenic, chromium etc.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Sounds as if you may be a vegeterian. I have often thought I would like to give up eating meat, fish, and seafood but old habits are hard to shake. In northern Spain, where I live, people are always boiling live crabs and lobsters and I feel sorry for these creatures. Apparently they are high in cholesterol too, by the way, aprt from the other dangers you mention. Best wishes, Robert.
