The Farm.

I fucking hate this. Regular meter and rhyme scheme is really uncomfortable. The worst part is that the final stanza is pretty good but the rest is shit.

A petting zoo where you all chose
To settle down for now
In passing, in the future you will
Feel such shame, and how

"What a place to grow!" says I
Above the primal din
But they've walled themselves in mud and lies
They're walled completely in

The animals, they never stop
They honk and yelp and screech
But worst of all, horrifically
They often seek to preach

Agglutinate into a sound
A single fragile phrase
A scream, a buzz, an all-consuming
Auditory haze

Cacophony of pigs and asses
Braying out of tune
The vultures paralyze with sound
And no one is immune
