James was a militant vegan.
Jacob and Esau, the modern rendition
/// In his library we find The Squire
and the Gamekeeper,
come to inquire about getting his wages.
(He’s been unpaid for ages.)
More than turnips to eat, he’ll require.
It was urgent and when I tore off the leaf it scared the buck, Here’s the proof.
James: keeping the wild turnips from running rampant.
I have a cunning plan…..
Pictured: How Euell Gibbons got his start, Stalking the Wild Turnip.
The Gamekeeper converted to ASPCA
No longer could he stand small creatures to slay
He became a devoted natural vegetable eater
Wild onions, dandelions, with honey as sweetener
He hasn’t eaten animal flesh, to this day
.
Many wild foods are around, free for the pickin’
Who needs processed beef, pork, or chicken?
Lambs quarters are a badly named common weed
Upon which people can nutritionally feed
But you must be aware some plants can sicken
Puffballs are delicious when young, if fried
But some mushrooms are the cause of those who died
Jerusalem Artichokes are like potatoes to parboil hot
And chicory roots can be added to your coffee pot
But nightshade leaves are deadly to those who tried
The games keeper thus his job resigned
And feasted on plants common countywide
The wild animals came to fear him not
Not one for many years has he shot
Since having let his ethics be his guide
Depends on what turns up.
Yeah, been using organic fertilizer… give it a try!
The wild turnip is a fierce creature when wounded.
