wENT TO THE BEACH TODAy, sPAGHETTI-hEAD.
WITH A FRIEND.
tODAY I BOUGHT SOME CLOTHES
a FUNKY o'nEILL TANK TOP
AND A PINK T-SHIRT.
aTE A CESAR SALAD AND SOME MOZZ STIX,
XXXX DECIDED TO GO VEGETARIAN.
AGAIN.
gETTING MY SEA LEGS BACK
SO THE SHARKS DONT EAT ME FOR DINNER THIS YEAR
WHEN I DECIDE TO GO SURFING
ON THE BOARD THAT I'M FINALLY COMMITTING TO BUY IN mAY.6'2".
i THINK OF THE FISHES THAT SWIM IN THE SEA WITH ME WHEN i
TAKE THE BIG PLUNGE INTO THE OCEAN
AND HOW THEY NIBBLE AT MY LEGS
WHEN I'M FILTERING AROUNG IN THE CHURNING TIDES-
AND i WONDER-
WHY WOULD i WANT TO EAT THEM ALL?
aT LEAST THATS WHAT i THINK TODAY....
tOMORROW i'LL PROBABLY CRAVE A TUNA-FISH SANDWICH
AND GIVE INTO MY CARNAL URGE
AND TAKE AWAY A LIFE THAT WAS NEVER MINE TO TAKE-
bUT WHO AM i TO IGNORE MY STOMACH?
i GUESS NEXT TIME...i'LL ONLY KILL THE ONES THAT
tRY TO EAT ME WHEN I'M SWIMMING NEXT TO THEM.

    I just can't help to think that most of those animals have something to contribute...though most of them eat "meat" anyway.
    I am quite partial to seafood...especially lobster,..but I'm trying to shy away from it all.
    Those poor cows!Even Brontosauruses were vegetarians!And the tyrans ate them to extinction!
    I wish I could figure it all out....the eating habits.Its the waitress in me.

    I have such a great mental picture in my head after reading your poem..nice writing
    It doesnt hurt.... when I bleed
    but memories...they eat me
    I've seen it all before,...
    bring it on cause I'm no victim.
