Vegan crayons are made from green onions, purple potatoes, yellow corn and other would-be wasted vegetables.

===============================

Listen to poem:
Have you heard a carrot scream, when dragged outta earth? Or the yell of green beans peeled alive severed cross-wise, sectioned? Or the curdling yell of purple potatoes plonked alive in boiling water? Or the plaintive cry of yellow corn cobs stripped-searched, naked. All to be less-wasteful, and draw humanely, and guilt-free, in noise-cancelling headphones.
