This poem is based off Jonathan Smiths satiric article, 'A Modest Proposal'.
Cannibals


Hear them run and scream
Watch their eyes gleam
They run in terror
We all know there's an error
A flaw in the system one might think
But maybe blood is a tasty drink
Their flesh juicy and tender
It does well in a blender
Feasting like savages
Ignoring all of the cabbages
Society has changed
So that eating people can be arranged
