watched the stressed animal behind the window what i can't hear is what i see witnessed castration behind the counter what i can't feel is what i hear to choose never encouraged passion denies what's taught my own eyes and heart forget what's taught (and the carrots are looking delicious) this is my way the way i'm gonna live it this is my way to take a bite to live it and if that annoys you well that's only your problem. (Is there ever silence in slaughter house? Does the blood ever stop hitting the concrete? Through the class we can watch it - a turtle hitting it's head agaist the four walls of its prison cell. It does not make much noise, or could we hear the screams? Do we really have to go this far?)
