chasing a chicken

if i had to kill an animal,
like a chicken,
for instance,
i probably wouldn't eat one,
same goes
for a cow,
or pig.
there would be no bacon
frying in the pan.
no lamb chops.
no stew on the stove.
i wouldn't be wearing
these alligator shoes,
or this bear skin coat.
i'd be hungry and cold
staring at the ground
waiting for cotton and
potatoes to grow.
