On Ortolans
Having not eaten an animal in
half a decade:
I would throw this morality away
to consume one.
Such a beautiful expression
of brutal violence.
Drown it, roast it, eat it whole:
bones and all.
I would still hide, cloth over face,
not a believer.
In open defiance of God, weeping;
a religious experience.
I would weep with Him.
