"eyestalk" poems
They cut, crush, cauterize or tie off the eyestalk
of female prawns and shrimp
to stimulate faster reproduction
usually without anesthesia
I often wonder the complexity of pain felt
when they flail about helplessly
disoriented and dissevered
Do they rejoice?
For their life has a gained greater purpose.
Or do they mourn what once was?
For the following generations will be disease-prone and decline
and suffer
and decay.
Nothing we haven't already done to ourselves admittedly.
We might actually be the only organisms
unable to cohabitate with each other.
We seek God to fear our actions
that are preached as sins.
It keeps us good and honest
Yet our empires and civilizations repeatedly fall
generation after generation
as power is granted to our rulers that partake in
Eyestalk Ablation.
For we worship them over God himself.
It's a good thing we were getting tired of God anyways.
