I know what’s gone wrong

A  ocean of chickens

as far as the eye

can see all alive

but none thinking why

what’s been installed

in part of the shed

an industrial robot

that deals with the dead

the chickens all peck

no doubt they

are in essence chatting away

but slowly whats happening

is this machine

is processing them

where once they had been

created life force

now they were dead

stripped of their feathers

their legs and their head

jointed and packed

sucked of their soul

all oven ready

massive control

somebody designed this

somebody knew

what was to happen

and how to do

such  operations

with oceans of birds

produced specifications

consisting of words

and so it was made

by many Id say

all of  them aware

how it would play

out on the oceans of chickens

who’d be

gathered up  slaughtered

and oven ready

what a sick world

we find ourselves in

artistic arses

do now underpin

manufacturing here

with their vilest techniques

designed to make profit

and deals with the peaks

and the troughs and the beaks

and the hearts

and what’s true

murdering bastards

the lot of you
