I Find It Hard to Understand

I find it hard to understand
people who complain of gory videos,
of animals being killed
because this is the true reality TV.

I find it hard to understand
people who choose to turn away,
and continue to devour their flesh,
in spite of catching glimpses of the bloody truth.

I find it hard to understand
how people have the heart
to not listen to the cries of terror,
to not truly witness the horror of it all.
