what is that?

there's pretend
meat
in the stores now,
pleasing
the emaciated
vegans.
sticks of fake
butter,
taste like butter
the label says.
almost sugar
from a plant leaf.
coconut flour.
almond flour.
soy milk,
which isn't milk
at all.
i remember when
milk used to come
from an animal's
breast.
what's next, a wooden
apple,
a styro-foam
peach.
grapes made in the lab
from a petri
dish?
