Best Worms For Best Soup
A farmer of chickens I am
my chickens know my voice
they are familiar with my signs
the good eaters slow ones I know
I trap best worms for them to eat
fat grasshoppers I feed them on
to make them fat and delicious
whenever I want to feast on any
but I sacrifice lives of worms
grasshoppers shade tears of pain
I do not mind any of their agonies
intention is to generate good soup
destroy something for something
diet of best worms makes best soup
