Poem: A Word From A Vegan!

My name is Kasumi

I don’t eat meat nor dairy

I love animals

I love my food

I think for environment

And yes I think for my future self too

 

I don’t support cruelty

I support humane.

Even you being carnist

I get it.

 

But hey, my friend

Each of us, we have a choice

To educate and aware ourselves

So take a moment and contemplate

A scoop of chocolate ice cream

A slice of cheddar cheese

Where does it come from?

 

Before you pour yourself a glass of milk

Or order a pizza with extra cheese

Think of the baby calf torn away from her mother

Just so you can have the milk which was meant for her baby,

 

And yet you milk her till her body is broken

And when she is of no use

You sell her cheap at an auction

 

Guess what happens next?

She meets her dreadful destiny

Standing in the line

Shaking, shivering

Not knowing she’s about to take the final breath of her cow’s life.
