'Don'T Eat Meat! ' Poem by Linda Winchell

Can't eat chicken,
Can't eat beef!
Chickens' got some flu thing,
And cows' are falling off their feet!

Mad cow disease has hit some farms,
And I've read has killed some people too!
What am I too eat I wounder?
What am I too do?

I think I'll eat my veggies now,
But I've read their tainted too!
Tomatoes' got some kinda funk,
Or is it peppers', I have no clue?

This paper in my printer,
Is looking really good to me!
I'm starving, my tummies talking back,
So paper snacking it might be!

I'll pretend it tastes like a sandwich,
With some peanut butter and jam.
Oh no, I'm allergic to nuts I think?
So I guess it's Jam what am?

I wish soon they would get things straightened out,
Before I fade away!
The lawn is looking tender and green,
Oh my heavens', what did I hear myself just say?

I'm losing my mind, I think I'm going mad!
I now seem to display what was said those cows' must have?

Just fill my hunger with water I guess, is there anything else too think? But I've heard that's not a good idea either, our waters' not safe to drink!

I'm going to bed and forget it all, and dream of steak and fries,
And hope that all I've read and heard, is just a dream or pack of LIES!
