i hate being misunderstood
saying "thanks, but actually..."
everywhere, i keep having to
explain myself again and again
oh youre vegan? they ask
so then i have to explain
male chicks get killed on their first day of life
and cows are literally r*ped
only to get called an extremist
just cause they like the taste
but what about protein?
B12? C3? and DHA?
a list of vitamins you just googled
suddenly youre a nutrition expert
but plants feel pain too
thats my favorite one
literally grasping for straws
please dont make me explain
but were predators! lions! food chain!
they tell me while they walk
up and down the aisle
of the big grocery store
they peruse the rows of corpses
pick and choose the best
were hunters! its tradition!
they say while they turn
away when they see any footage
they just dont want to learn
