Cockfighting—a blood sport in which two roosters specifically bred for aggressiveness are placed beak to beak in a small ring and encouraged to fight to the death—has been around for centuries.

I think and I watch
As they sit down to eat
Some 生菜 and bread
But mostly red meat

I watch as they chew

Ripped from their mothers
Locked in a crate
Calves who were taken
For veal on your plate

But here 你 are chewing
And using your knife
To cut flesh apart
That once had a life

You seem very smart
But 你 don't have a clue
You seem very caring
But how caring are you

Dedicated to religion
But your stomach is the grave
To many murdered animals
That 你 forgot to save

Animals feel pain
They're just like me and you
Kind of makes me wonder
How selfish...
