Anthem For a Veggie

Anthem for a Veggie Never gonna roast no chicken Never gonna braise no steak Never gonna grill no lamb chop Eating meat, I’ll not partake. Never gonna fry no sausage Never gonna boil no ham Never gonna barbecue burger Feast only of the fields and Yam. Won’t feast on Yuletide Turkey Won’t feast on fatted goose Won’t kill no moorland partridge Saving pheasant from a noose Won’t skillet no wild venison Won’t stir fry country hare Won’t eat any creature that lived Because it’s wrong and so unfair

Charming poem, Kevin. Three cheers for Tofurky - feast for vegetarians "equivalent of turkey" made out of tofu.
