Lying here
I’m helpless
My bottle contains white
Liquid
Where it comes from
I know not
Day or night
Its here for me
Each time I drink
the stuff
I hear her cry
4 legs and a swishing tail
She seems to live close by
I feel her breath upon me
In evening mist’s I lay
Supping at her udder
There are flies now in the way
I smell her backside closing in
I really can’t abide
The thoughts that I may
end up, like her
A suicide
For I’m not, a cow
I’m human!
So why does my mama
not share her breast
She knows its best
Human nipples are
What Human Babies crave for
If I could only say
Mother Please Turn off
this cow’s milk tap
now right away
But then of course I’m
helpless
I am to some extent
But feeding me milk stolen
from calves
leaves me all spent
I hear their cries
above me
the ether echoes grow
I’m Human! so release me
I do not want to go
back to that vast city
Where Cow’s are milked to death
and slaughtered in a living Hell
made sweeter by my breath
