The day that we die
Is when the others can fly
In a trance come the ten
The anticipating kin

Have you no decency?
Have you no shame?
I live for this peace
And I live with these pains

Awaiting a bite
So they'll party all night
Until they grow old
Where they too are sold.

Intruiging piece of poetry. I find its ambiguity very interesting. A deep social comment that speaks well of the human race.Well done
