Poem from a listener of NPR's "Morning Edition",
in response to a show about eating dogs:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not like I'd eat Lassie, were she offered up to me,
But as we globalize the world, let's not fear what we see.
We are the way we are because we got that way, that's why.
And different people got their ways, o'er sands of different times.
So where we see a precious, little, furry friendly pet,
Koreans see a delicacy, divinely to be et.
Diversity is a key in life, especially when we eat,
And one peoples' stern taboo, will always be anothers' treat.
