Animal Rights Poetry By Vivian Chinelli



IF YOU KNEW

Why do vegans seem
“preachy” and “extreme?”

It’s because in their dreams
they hear the screams
or see the streams of videos
on the internet
of a mama cow being brutalized
and traumatized before their eyes.

Her piercing cries that
are masked by lies that say
the mama cow is happy.

It’s hard to sit back
and not spread the word.
Make it heard.
So that everybody knows
the reality, EXPOSED!

But until we’re open to learning the facts,
it might seem to us like they overreact.

But the truth is,
if we knew
what they knew,
we might be “preachy,” too.
