 <\/p>\n

I drive alongside an 18-wheeler loaded with lambs on their way
\nto Chuck\u2019s Custom Slaughter in Dixon. Halal slaughter welcome.
\nThe lamb\u2019s melancholy faces protrude from bars in wooden cages,
\nas if to plead their case from as they eye-ball every passing motorist
\nfor one more day of roaming in the bucolic pastures called home.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll never eat another lamb chop.<\/p>\n
