We wait for the taste
Of eggs once laid in such hope
Wasted as dinner
And the farmer knows the truth
The eggs were hatched for dying.
Please tell me what you think

Eggs... not just for breakfast any more. Okay, so I'm a little shallow for this kind of poetry. The farmer knows... very good.

"bred for the dead". WASP.

Thanks for commenting. Do you have to be or can you gain a sense of strength through self confidence and belief in yourself etc? (I might have misunderstood the comment
)

hm... eggs... not sure i get this. oh well...
"the eggs were hatched for dying"
I like this line. don't know why. -
Powerful write. I liked the last line the best. I thought of eggs as having two meanings. Either chicken eggs that people eat for food or excess embryos that are destroyed after procedures like in-vitro fertilization. Keep up the good writes.

Wow, pozo... what a coincidence... I have to do a contest poem for one of my groups and it has to be about the egg... and now I open up allpoetry today and there you are with "Eggs" ...
Your poem is really thought provoking. Very metaphorical.
An interesting little write, pozo, very good
love and
Mom
