Bucket Steak

Cattle graze the hillside
The sun is gentle and kind
Here comes Lyle and a mechete
The cow lost its life.
Few months later
Mom's cooking food
On a plate next to carrots
This bucket steak tastes good.
*edit. mechete is actually spelled machete.

during the dire times of the early 1980's when i was about 7 years old, my family had a farm. i would sit on a hillside and watch all the animals frolic and graze. i fell in love with it, for you see there was no video games and "toys" to pass my time. but when Lyle stormed the hillside to slaughter animals for food, (the grocery store was not an option...we were poor) it stuck in my mind. that's when i decided right then and there that ending the lives of animals that are basically defenseless is the way to go.
now it's too hard for me to follow in the footsteps of Lyle because of companies such as IBF have shut me out.
i wish it was 1981 again.
why didn't you just change the spelling in the body of the piece? reminds me of that SNL thing...what were those called? daily thoughts?

i am not one to ever try to cover up mistakes, namely my life, which is of course the biggest one of all.
A junkie would like to eat a bucket steak.
You should not worry about how the cows feel, for they are stupid land mammals.
And no, kevinbeetle is not a douchebag.
Thank You.

You spend your life waiting for a moment that just don't come
Well don't waste your time waiting
i guess it's okay to let mistakes that can be fixed just wallow as they are...instead of correcting them...ugh

you don't understand. if i were to edit my post and fix the discrepency, it will appear as though i changed the original meaning of my poem because the board insists of telling people that a post has been edited.
hence, i footnote the disgrace and let it be, not to wallow as you would say, but as a reminder that i do in fact realize that my mistakes are acknowledged and understood.
*edit. discrepency should be spelled discrepancy.
but, it also allows you to state a reason for your edit..."because i misspelled machete" - sorry...just a pet peeve...i understand what you're doing - it just annoys me...that's all

....ugh....i wish the AET forum would open back up

you do realize that you have posted in my awesome thread and you among others who deem my art "silly" will perhaps have to answer to the powers that be.
also this is a no response post, so don't do it.
have a good day.
it's okay ISN, no need for that man.
just try...that's all we ask.
Thank You for this Floyd Manzera.
Here we are now face to face and I'm fucking you.
now THIS is silliness
i like sillyness, too
in fact, the funny part is that earlier today, I was walking around composing circa Yngwie Malmsteen type lyrics that went
"And when all her ire was spent
in it's place bloomed a lovely pair of knockers"
now THAT's silly!
peace
