just peachy...


wink, wink, all blink
no fur, all pink
no skin, no pound
of flesh, is found
this warmth, to take
none dead, will make
this coat, this hat
all fake, no quake
no beaver, no chinchilla
no rabbit, no fox
no cat, no dog
no raccoon, no mink
no seal, no bear
no nutria, no fitch
no sable, no ermine
no muskrat, no lynx
no trap, no bludgeon
no scream, no cry
no torture, no suffer
no blood, ask why?
no guilt, no slaughter
no waste, no blame,
all fake, all comfort
all thrill, all sane
all dream, all fashion
all passion, no stink
all conscience, all reason
all good, just think...
