The problem with beef

People who are full of beef are anti-cow. 
This is obvious, for they eat the cow. You
didn't need to read that - I didn't need to 
write it!

However,
they are also pro-cow, 
for 
they eat the cow. 
Duh. 

They view the cow as a roving resource 
of beef and sometimes milk - not "dairy!"
- that's where it comes from! Dairies 
produce "dairy products." Cows 
produce milk, and work in dairies 
as slaves.

The one full of milk 
and beef is pro-cow,
and supports the cow
as a resource for these, 
plus leather. Many a mother 
has asked a wayward daughter:

"Why would anyone buy a cow
for free milk? When what they 
want is the beef and leather 
you give away." Implied, and
sometimes stated outright
was the moral: "If you aren't
wiser in conduct, you may find
yourself in the shameful position
of a mother! One of the most 
demeaned and reviled professions
- oldest in the world, or so you'll
feel, when a child of yours like you
comes to you smiling, reeking of sex
and unsold beef, given away free!"

Such asked daughters
had no answer. They
were crying,
shamed
by the obvious
barn-style metaphor.
"Mom is way too rural in her
views, and sees me as an animal
for not haggling my own meat
at premium cost!" Many a slut 
has been shamed by this beef. 
Poor cow.
"Slut-shaming"
is a widely-different problem here, 
though. Our problem is a critical 
examination of beef itself: the main 
dish! Not these side beefs. 

A side of beef is huge, and too much 
to deal with alone. In the UK, a solution
was found: make cows eat beef. This is 
anti-cow, and the consequence? Mad. 

Whoever eats beef-fed beef is mad. 
The cause of this shows the wisdom
of ancient taboos on the practice
was right all along. When o when

will humanity learn to get it right
all along again?

Perhaps,
when we stop being so
anti-cow.
