Christopher Grieves Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Vegan Burger

I hold you.
And bite you.
You drip down my chin..
I really just didn't know
Where to begin

My teeth as they sink
Through the layers of joy
Encouraged by lentil
Enraptured by soy

There are moments and layers 
In life we should cherish;
None ever so blissful 
As encountering relish

Or the pickly thing 
Or the goo that's so cheesy
Yet it's not, we're OK
My conscience still frees me

For a burger is life.
With it's multiple facets
And the creatures we love..
Well, they're more than just assets 

So dive in and be free
To celebrate goodness
Free from harm or distress
Something wholesome and bloodless

Your body will thank you
The planet will send
A sigh of relief
To some four legged friend

We can all live together
Without fear or distressing
For a burger is life.
It's the truth. And no messing.
