Deep thoughts. Killing for food. Lambs, young animals becoming mere meat. Most of us do not want to think about the animal when we eat the meat.

I think a very important apect of the whole issue to give the animals a life they would be able to enjoy. If I see how some of them are transported, it is very sad. Good and very thought provoking poem.
A very moving poem beautifully expressed. I'm told pigs often have heart attacks on the way to the Slaughterhouse. They know. A tough subject well tokd. Thank you Tom billsborough
