Some vegans vomit fiddleheads
emphatically brandishing
their coiled lime fists;
often sparring to uppercut
the masticating omnivores
of domesticated fowl
and beast.
I must confess,
I do eat meat,
like my fellow Hominids,
as my ancient ancestors did.
I’ve no gun or zeal to hunt;
I don’t paint still life
on butcher blocks.
I render our earth, both flora and fauna,
on cotton rag in watercolor,
not calfskin vellum
with sable brushes.
Being human
affords us choice
in committing those acts
that humans do.
Some pointing fingers
have murdered still,
albeit a human fetus
or two.
Tofu does raise the question: Animal or Vegetable or UFO (unidentifed food object)?
