my skin is your crackling
the cost is I lost
I was born
but was torn
for on your grill
was tossed
the gestation crate
my birthplace
my fate
trodden on by
my mother
why
it was her last dance
she took that chance
she rolled on me
I became, history
broken was I
no mercy shown
for pork on your fork
soon so fly blown
a maggots lament
who was content
not me any more
a sausage for sure
maggots and all
filled into the gut of sheep
as a rule
tossed on the grill
I crackled still
plenty of ketchup
a new form of swill
this time for you
your kids maybe who
enjoy the pink slime
eating it all the time
