A person living off the land <br />would need to really understand <br />what he can eat and what's taboo <br />most people wouldn't have a clou. <br /> <br />Well, anything that crawls or hops <br />or runs full speed through farmer's crops <br />those slippery devils in the lake <br />no birds of prey though on the make. <br /> <br />And do remember that a bat <br />is full of that essential fat <br />and kangaroos make yummie stews <br />I also recommend small shrews. <br /> <br />If you observe what Nature gives <br />to those who ask, it mostly lives <br />you take a life for nourishment <br />it is a small predicament. <br /> <br />And have you heard the ancient saying <br />that's oft repeated, just like praying <br />it's something you must understand <br />live off the Fat, Fat of the land. <br /> <br />Fats come in various disguises <br />molecularly it comprises <br />the saturated ones, they're best <br />poly's and mono's for the rest. <br /> <br />You need a hefty lot of sats <br />those are the predator's good fats. <br />And olive oil as well as plants <br />will put condition in your pants. <br /> <br />The one to keep away for sure <br />is transfats, they'll ruin any cure <br />they are constructed by dumb men <br />and hurt your body first and then <br /> <br />they kill you slowly, wreck your heart <br />so, think about it, play it smart. <br />If you desire to be whole <br />you must eat your cholesterol. <br /> <br />It's found in eggs and cheese and meat <br />nutritionally it's hard to beat. <br />Protects you from a heart attack <br />brings in the nutrients you lack. <br /> <br />So listen not to the purveyors <br />or those who offer you their prayers <br />while taking out of your big purse <br />much gold, so read this little verse <br /> <br />And use your skills and your cognition <br />say NEVER to the apparition <br />and to the crooked moneymonger <br />believe you me, you'll live much longer.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fat-of-the-land/
