Organic Farming Slam Poem

Organic Farming

By Nicole McCord

 

Organic farming, organic farming

Little is to know how much you actually are harming

The earth

The people

The bugs

And the economy

Some people think you are still owned by a small family

Maybe some ten years ago when people still had jobs and the economy was alright

But now you barely have to pick a fight

To get one hundred percent of your food organic for sure

The process of how they are grown is much of a blur

Some of you tree huggers think organic farming is the way to go

But in reality it truly is not so

Organic farms produce fewer yields

So much more lands are taken in to become fields
Causing a larger imbalance in the ecosystems

So maybe go reevaluate your latest theorems

About this issue that can save you alot of dough

The organic farms are not making the universe flow

You say mmmm these tomatoes taste so juicy and great

They are even the reddest ones i've seen to date

When really they aren't and it's all in your mind

If you did some actual research you really would find

That organic foods are no better than the rest

They could even cause a severe pain in your chest

With the lack of intensity in all of the pesticides

They are used more frequently causing many cases of ecoli's

Maybe your sick and you think organic foods will heal you

Lets just say it's really such bull poo

That these foods are loaded with nutrients, antioxidants and especially vitamins

You are basically as knowledgeable as Charlie Sheen when he says he wins

If you want to pay twice as much for your food
Then might I say you are crazy dude
Also if you want your food to be genetically modified
I can honestly say I will not eat a meal by your side
And if you want to have your foods loaded with copper and sulfur

The use of these pesticides should seriously cause a stir

But these organic farms are becoming cocky and shady

Ten years back we may have personally known the lady

Who started this all the way back to its root

Little did she know it would cause such a hoot

And make organic farming turn into the most profitable industry

I know in my heart to support them is besides me

Organic farming, organic farming

Seriously do you know how much you actually are harming?
