sheds"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The Cafo is a concentrated hellhole<br \/>\nFor horror even Edgar Allan Poe<br \/>\nCouldn&#8217;t have dreamed up anything as squalid<br \/>\nassemblages of such  vastness and they grow<br \/>\nA sea of filthy crammed in  aching bodies<br \/>\nThe smell of shit and urine cuts the air<br \/>\nThe rabble scramble fighting for their own space<br \/>\nThe rush the crush the numb the dumb all there<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s seething with the maggots of the fly blown<br \/>\nThe roaches they inhabit in great throngs<br \/>\nThe rats are not that far behind gnawing at the flesh<br \/>\nWe have broken every law and all the wrongs<br \/>\nAre evident their lives have disintegrated<br \/>\nThey fight for every corn seed that is tossed<br \/>\nThey peck like wild piranha and suffer gaping wounds<br \/>\nLife in these vast sheds is one huge cost<\/p>\n<p>And these frail ragged warriors are ready<br \/>\nTo fulfil their role and they of course will be<br \/>\nStuck in some wet sandwich or in one of those buckets<br \/>\nScoffed by all and sundry for their tea<br \/>\nThey twitch they snitch they pitch their itch is hourly<br \/>\nExistence is a brief moment in time<br \/>\nIn a few weeks they grow pumped up with hormones<br \/>\nOut of their pit of shit one day to climb<\/p>\n<p>Onto dinner plates around the cities<br \/>\nPumped with antibiotics more so we<br \/>\nAre fucking up the chicken generation<br \/>\nAnd causing multiple harm to those who be<br \/>\nReady to confront the breaded offering<br \/>\nThe sauces and the spices that create<br \/>\nSomething kind of special in our stomachs<br \/>\nListen will you to the big debate<\/p>\n<p>These souls and they are souls born of creation<br \/>\nAre tortured from the moment they are born<br \/>\nA few short weeks of terror, it&#8217;s our error<br \/>\nBut a few short weeks and life from them is torn<br \/>\nThe subhuman low life labourers come to fetch them<br \/>\nThrow them into cages as if they<br \/>\nWere sacks of shit they get no care no none at all<br \/>\nInjured maimed and tortured all the day<\/p>\n<p>Wings smashed legs crushed this is how we treat them<br \/>\nThe agony of piece rates seems to me<br \/>\nTo once again present them with the horror<br \/>\nOf deaf blind stupid humans who won&#8217;t see<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s all about production the destruction<br \/>\nOf husbandry of caring for those who<br \/>\nWe expect to bring more profit to the table<br \/>\nWho we physically destroy that&#8217;s what we do<\/p>\n<p>This is the true holocaust these chickens<br \/>\nReally couldn&#8217;t suffer any more<br \/>\nTheir lives are one big agony<br \/>\nThey have no opportunity<br \/>\nFor them their permanence of life was war<br \/>\nTransported in wire cages to the slaughterhouse<br \/>\nCrushed and bleeding one can only cry<br \/>\nOne can only wonder at their purpose<br \/>\nLooking up at what they see as sky<\/p>\n<p>Everywhere is blood stained on the gibbets<br \/>\nThey are thrust disgusting carousels of death<br \/>\nThe guillotine may cut their throat or miss them<br \/>\nAltogether<br \/>\nAnd in the scalding tanks they then will note<br \/>\nRubbed out by the hand of death they suffered<br \/>\nHow they suffered how they took it on<br \/>\nThese wretches knew of complete desolation<br \/>\nDoomed they were completely woebegone<\/p>\n<p>These chicken corpses riddled with bacteria<br \/>\nCry plague and god know what else,really they<br \/>\nUnderwent such heinous ugly moments<br \/>\nA Fulsome fetid and intolerable display<br \/>\nTheir corporate masters set this up accordingly<br \/>\nEvery chicken born in that vile place<br \/>\nA concentration camp of such proportions<br \/>\nThey of course are lost without a trace<\/p>\n<p>Into our filthy acid ridden gobs they go<br \/>\nTrans fats follow animals fats as well<br \/>\nHydrogenated grease and all the residues<br \/>\nEnd up in our intestinal pipes of hell<br \/>\nTubes that pulse and move the regeneration<br \/>\nThe torn up shredded bodies of those who<br \/>\nWere raised in absolute squalor with the roaches and the flies<br \/>\nAnd now are forming flesh that becomes you yes girls and guys<br \/>\nFor you are what you eat and you are eating<br \/>\nDesperation despondency despair<br \/>\nWriting these words on this page<br \/>\nIs giving me goose bumps<br \/>\nSuch consternation are you now aware?<\/p>\n<p>How repellant you&#8217;ve become and just how cowardly<br \/>\nYou turned your head away and would not see<br \/>\nThe odious ness the hatefulness the loathsome ness<br \/>\nThe abomination present that is thee<br \/>\nIs it any wonder that those chickens will come on back to haunt you<br \/>\nAnd they will<br \/>\nFor karma knows the overdrawn and cancer comes from evil spawn<br \/>\nAnd inevitably the experience will kill<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cafo
