let me eat in peace
spare me the story
the videos
the tweets
of whatever war was going on
because there is always a war going on
don’t bother me
with more exploitative narratives
of the people who produced
this yummy food
in the face of wars
famine
their own children
not eating
what I get to eat
no one needs to know all that
we just want to eat in peace
even if real peace is impossible
because it doesn’t equal profit
money is lost
economies stagnate
when there isn’t exploitation
of people
of land
or resources
let me eat in peace
keep the reality away from the table
the lack of nutritional content
in the food is irrelevant
the suffering sacrifice of animals
makes meals even tastier
don’t you think
because we don’t want to think
we only want to eat in peace
amen
