I get the strange urge or

A predictable fervor

To ask for red meat

Or get one more burger

.

As if it would be a feat

To conquer my doubt

That I could swear off entirely

Do completely without

.

And replace that hot taste

The grease in my face

With that more peaceable label

Plant eaters avow

.

To be able to face

Not on my plate nor my table

But a kind curious bovine

Left to their stable

.

Wouldn't that be fine

To let live for futures beyond now

And make not food but a friend

Indeed a happier end

.

For us and the cow

...

(I know it was meant for AI but I wanted to do it too)
