Calum O’Connell
is it vegan to eat cum?
look—a soyboy boytoy
who lentils you up,
his wholegrain duty;
just this once,
give him oats & agave
so he can break this fast.
he mylks you almonds,
bolstered with water—
enough to fill a carton.
(don't you know?
it's still a bit nicer
than the real stuff.)
look—a high-fibre insider
whose salvaged species
porridged his own;
just this once,
let him have his beans &
then shit them away.
he cheezes the uncheesable:
it's something of a delicacy,
so, yes, he'll take it.
(don't you know?
if you're gonna cook tofu,
at least dry it out first.)
