a poem from the past…

I wrote this poem when I was looking for some saction.

“luck”

in preperation for your departure,
i prepared for your arrival
at a place different from my own,
a home different from my home,
an unknown to what I know.
they give you the dough;
you do the rest,
you ace the test,
you were the best.
but now you’re the same to them
as all of your friends:
a number, a figure,
a counter of your soul.

nothing to make of it
but what they tell you.
i wish you knew
exactly what i do.

Isn’t this a little extreme?

These people are taking this idea too far. I try to maintain a level of respect for people who believe in something even if I disagree with it, but I just can’t believe that anyone could actually say that the bodies of people who eat meat are made up of dead animals. It’s just ridiculous.
