Red Meat or Beans

 Go flex your mussels

  Let’s have an ostrich’s head in the dessert’s sand

Tis’ arm?

    Flamed in oil?

Toy?

Mighty eagles.

Complacent sheep.

        Silent lambs -

On their feet.

          Brave shave!

          Deep fry!

         Do you struggle?

        Do you starve?

       Do you twist that arm out of its socket?

      Do you grab at someone else’s pocket?

     Do you inform or display?

    Do you engage or dismay?

   Do you support or deprive?

  Do you stage or survive?

Did you? Will you?

Get off your fence?

Sit here with us?

Share in the soup?

And give peas a chance?
