Animal Rights Poetry and Prose By Heidi Coon
Poems of compassion dedicated to the non-human animals who share this planet with us and the people who fight for them.
Segmented
By Heidi Coon
Murderhouses…chop shops...butcher block…
Bolt stunner
Skull crusher
Brain matter
Hereafter
Blood splatter
Chained to a rafter
Suffer
The belly ripper
Factor
The tail cutter
The hide puller
They fill your platter
They don’t matter
It’s meat you’re after
Animal segment dinner
Blood varnishes the steel chute cerise
Flesh separated from head, tail, feet
Mutilated until their heart beats cease
They are dying, piece by piece
But you’re blind
Meat paradox find
Your denial of mind
It’s you I malign
Dying to be eaten
All animals, ‘cept for human
Western Vs eastern tradition
Categorically; to be, or not be, eaten
They all take a beatin
They’re all denied their freedom
Your appetite is the reason
Cretin,
Go vegan
