Not Willingly

By Bridgitte Leah Ferguson, age 13



Have you ever seen a slaughterhouse,
and the horrors within?
Have you witnessed the killing,
have you seen it begin?
Shot in the head,
with a dead-bolt gun,
the wound to the head,
is flowing with blood.
Chains are attatched to the leg,
the cow's lifted up.
Buckets are placed underneath the head,
this cow's out of luck.
The throat is slit open,
and the blood, like a river,
pours like a faucet,
from the gouged sliver.
The skin is peeled off,
it hangs around the head.
A chainsaw saws the head off.
Now we know it is dead.
the carcass is cut in half,
and stuck in a cooler.
The body is steaming up a cloud,
from being killed not much sooner.
Then the meat is ground up,
and all this was so,
You could have that burger you're lovin.
You know the animals you eat,
don't go willingly to the oven.
