PIGS

They think they are fat sows

enjoying the fruits of their labor

reclined & matronly providing

warm milk to dozens of piglets

who sip their multiple teats

& if one should run dry

then that’s natural

& we should simply wait our turn

wait till someone else has had their fill

They were once piglets too

& Lord knows they waited

They have it quite backwards

We are the sow

We do the labor

They live off our milk

& they are drinking us dry

The difference is

they don’t know they're pigs
