Pets
Pets
We should only keep pets we could eat, say, rabbits
Or miniature pigs when we get tired of them in the pot
they go.
In the hinterland of Alentejo, I once had rabbit stew
It tasted strange but was edible later I suspect it was
Cat meat.
I have been thinking of becoming a vegetarian. Have tried
But it never tasted like meat.
There is now artificial meat for sale, alas mostly as burgers
When they come up with a good steak that doesn`t fall
Into pieces, I will eat that meat.
As for now I will have fried sausages for my lunch and
Baked potatoes
