Babe

[Bronte]

I loved that movie... but it did nothing to put me off eating bacon . I'm going to just run over your narrative for meter, because I think the content is fine, logical and with a great tone. Besides, we tend not to critique in "for fun" but I know you love it when things get all nitty gritty...

well here’s the truth of how it was
when i arrived out here.
with just eight teats to latch on, i
was always at the rear
four brothers and four sisters, well!
our feed times were a fight
so the gauge was reading empty
and i'd hardly had a bite

a “runt” the big man called me
as they took me to the fair
too be raffled off to anyone,
-- to whom, they didn't care
so in a box i cowered
while the people came to look
to guess my weight and wonder
and to write it in a book.

this one bloke picked me up and then
he looked me in the eye
said “no good’ll come of guessing,
for i haven’t got a sty."
but all the same he had a go
(i thought it was a hoot)
for just as he was saying it
i piddled on his boot,

ok!
i could go on and make this long
but really there's no time
come see me at the movies
i'm lardy, pink and prime
babe ten will be out shortly yes
and i couldn't give a fig
i'm babe: the famous starlit
the one and only poetic pig.

you are evil , have at it, the pig can take it because she eats everything
