Pigs Put On the Table
Pigs prance on the prairie
cooling off in the freshly wet mud from three inches of rain the previous day.
58 pigs welcome the dinner bell,
stampeding to the red barn without hesitation towards the slop trough.
57 pigs proceed back outside.
Olga an old Angeln Saddleback is stopped, thunders by at 700 pounds.
The pig is directed to the quaint old shed.
It reeks of death...for this is the end.
Pigs screech. As a result of one swift, brawny motion from the white farmhouse shed.
Chop, the body falls limp.
Pig, butchered for ribs. Tenderloin. Ham.
Bacon.
Pig splatters in the skillet, golden red,
Bacon.
Pig, the reason the German family bonds, giving thanks to
the pork -filled plates.
Bacon.
