Angel

look at you suffering

look at the peculiar baskets
you plop your eggs in

look at yourself

falling 
like the rest of them
into the killer whale tank
and me behind the glass

look at the fluoride-white teeth
biting you in the ass 

and me behind the glass
and me behind the glass
and me behind the glass

this is haunting.

don´t want to soil other interpretations, so:
maybe i am so far off that it´s offensive to your poem but this made me think of chicken mass production (both eggs and meat).. battery cages, CO2-tanks to suffocate them before processing  and sending their parts to supermarkets where they are exposed in fridges with glass doors.
