Food Pyramids and Consumption Politics

food pyramids, the gustatory embrace of cow eating senators 
bucking their allies.
So maybe the consumption of steroid pesticides 
truncates our ambition to swiftly move. 
No matter, there's wheelchairs, elevators, and highways
 to support the ride. 
Its all hearsay but there's definitely 
a hidden hand in school lunches. 
Maybe ranting across the state assembly 
to get their balding hairdoes in check 
and write some worlds 
that will help us understand our appetites
