Banksy’s idea of a video for
all the farm animals
nobody’s sure
what they feel
when we say
you are to die
most of the meat eating people
are shy
when it comes to the day
that death knocks and they
die in a melee of blood
thats the way
so Banksy decided
to put to the test
how people react
so he did invest
in a truck full of squeaky toys
squeaking away
telling the people
having their say
squeaking objections
how they don’t want to die
even if in concentration camps lie
in their own excrement
all of the day
they would still swap
that for their death
in the way
that it happens
throats slit
and bled out on the floor
they all love their lives#
they do say
so much more
they love all their friends
they love them much more
they hate all the blood
all the snot all the gore
people that saw it are sorry
it seems
some look away
no one writes reams
only me I suppose
for I feel all their pain
and I wouldn’t ever never
eat meat again
nobody’s dead flesh do I want in me
I am no crypt for the vanquished you see
all of that flesh rotting inside my gut
gives me the colly wobbles
open and shut
think one more moment
of all of those squeaks
put yourself in there
with them the peaks
and the troughs
they all feel as you look up and smile
or try in your hearts
to somehow reconcile
start one day a week
go vegan as well
and don’t consign the squeakies
to your man made hell
