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.
Nexus
By Heidi Coon
Cultural conditioning
Agricultural sickening
Flesh eating
Guttural soliciting
Muscle masticating
Structural listening
Corpse chewing
Unnatural quickening
Disgusting
Unmoral without questioning
Children play in their own shit
They find nothing wrong with it
Disgust; it ain’t an instinct
…it’s fun to play in your own shit…
Aversion is learned
&
it varies by culture.
Question tradition!
