weighing the obvious

chew, clench, slurp, swallow
spit out fat globs, flesh between teeth
stink, rot, decay, blacken
bellies fatten, greasy lips, panting
“I NEED THIS”

“our” commodities’ existence, unnatural
caged, soiled, poisoned, tortured, butchered
no play, air, offspring, survival, purpose
bleak, empty, pain, unrest
worth $1250.00

what have they received for their pain?

I like this kind of stream of consciousness poetry you've got going!
