A Graveyard For Cows and Pigs

A famous cowboy actor died 
 thirty pounds of undigested meat 
greeted the coroners
from the bowel of his belly 

They probably did not mean for this to get out
but it did  unfortunately 
because it was disgusting
and this was years ago, and still I think of it

I am a cow-eater and a pig-eater
I like my hamburgers bacon, roasts, and pork loin.
I know they are not good for me, so some day I may give them up
But for now,
for me,
I am better than okay with ….
being a graveyard for cows and pigs.
