"Alec Issignois said a camel was a horse
made by a committee.. but a camel is an animal created by
God to adapt to deserts made by treekilling human beings
The animal made by human commitee
had pickled pigs' feet .. the pigs now had no feet ..
frog's legs ...the frogs now had no legs
chicken's thighs... the chickens now had no thighs
lamb's ribs .. the lamb now had no ribs
turkey's breasts.. the turkey's chest was carved
sheep's eyes which watched the devourers
calf brains which contained Mad Cow
and God sent angels
to wipe all violence from the earth
from this day forth

"The shriek was followed by another, louder and yet more agonizing..for once started upon that journey, the hog never came back. One by one the men hooked up the hogs and slit their throats. There was a line of hogs with squeals and lifeblood ebbing away.. until at last each vanished into a huge vat of boiling water (some still alive). The hogs were so innocent. They came so very trustingly. They were so very human in their protests. They had done nothing to deserve it.

And thus Pope quotes the precept to re-teach
From his translation; but had none admired,
