'' There's Just As Much Life In A Salad '' Poem by Bri Mar

Veggies and Vegans say it's not cool,
They claim it's a murderous act,
If you eat any meat you must be a fool,
Is that nonsense or is it a fact.

Animals kill others that is true,
They must if they're to survive,
Humans eat meat like they do,
It's one method of staying alive.

Others eat grass, vegetables or hay,
True life forms every one,
We all need a feed from day to day,
When all is said and done.

That is life it's natures way,
Till vegans and veggies came along
These people feel the need to say,
That what we're doing is wrong.

We don't tell them what to eat,
So why do they tell us,
There's nothing wrong with eating meat,
So what is all the fuss.

They say that it's just so inhumane,
It's the taking of a life,
In their efforts they won't wane,
They just love to give us strife.

Some of them eat chicken and fish,
Both of them living things,
Like steak they make a lovely dish,
Yet still no alarm bell rings.

Others say it's a henious deed,
Killing animals for food,
Vegetables live but they don't take heed,
It's their insulated minds they delude.

Plants, fruits and vegetables come and go,
They're born and then they grow old,
Just like us they live and grow,
They're a part of life's great fold.

What gives veggies the right to dictate?
Don't plants have any rights,
Is it just because it's meat they hate?
They have us in their sights.

We are murderers they'd have you believe,
While they devour poor plants,
Truth is it's themselves they deceive,
With their hypocritical rants.

Plants like animals can't refuse,
None of them have a voice,
We eat to survive we do not abuse,
How we do that should be our own choice.

Killing year old lambs for Sunday lunch,
Are the actions of bloody louts,
I would counter that, now here's the crunch,
What about those poor baby sprouts.

The next time we're sitting down to our steak,
To all veggies we'll sing you a ballad,
The content will read that your argument's fake,
