It's claimed eating meat
Is a 'personal choice'
But what about those that we eat?
I'm sure that they too
Have a 'personal choice'
Not to cruelly be turned into meat.
Why is it we think
That the choice is all ours,
When others have so much to lose,
For something as fleeting
And fickle as taste,
Why should it be humans who choose?
PERSONAL CHOICE
