MONSANTO TYPE LAMB

*

Someone has tried
to create more legs
on this lamb
in order to eat
more legs of lamb.

Monsanto and other
corporate, university,
and government genetic engineering
threaten every lamb,
each sequestered clam,
all pigs murdered into ham,
every
cow murdered into spam.

Footnote: To see one such
lamb

Why are birds said to nest
while flies are said
to infest
What is the riddle
that termites
are said to riddle

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Those who build with
stone and metal
and stucco
and brick and block
do not have to
interact with termites
nor to paint
nor to pay as much
for insulation
nor worry about fire
