The Difference Between You and Me
I am your pick
Supposed to be a sacred slaughter
A sacrifice for your the Gods or Religion
I'm nothing more than mere food
Digested into your greedy tummies
Forgotten when you have your the next meal
Can I take the chance to say
Perhaps my soul will reach out to you
And maybe in our next births
I shall be the human and you the animal
But I promise I shall not be harsh
Not the way you have been
I shall not use religion as a sacrilege
I shall use my own thinking
I shall not sacrifice you the animal
on the contrary, I shall tend to your needs
That is the difference between you and me!
