Ode to the Esteemed Cockroach

Introductory

Cockroach farming  is done in a few countries and hilly tribal regions of the world. It is a rapidly expanding industrial sector, primarily in China, and surrounding regions where billions of these insects are bred in technologically-facilitated and climate-controlled facilities for protein rich food, medicine, animal feed, and waste management

 Ode to the Esteemed Cockroach

Oh, humble cockroach, protein's delight,

For humans and beasts, a nourishing sight.

Your body, a bounty, rich and sound,

On farms you're cultivated, on fertile ground.

A healer too, in ancient lore,

With drinks you're mixed, to help restore.

To keep us fit, a healthy brew,

A medicinal marvel, for me and you.

Yet, scorned you are, your name a curse,

A low comparison, for something worse.

But feeding on the lowly, is no disgrace,

True respect is earned, in time and space.

Be not ignorant, with minds so small,

For all beings have worth, stand up tall.

Like youth you are, uniquely made,

Do not stigmatize, nor be afraid.

Your essence shines, a distinct hue,

As does the spirit, ever new.

Embrace diversity, let understanding bloom,

Respect all life, dispelling gloom.

For in respect, respect you'll find,

A lesson learned, for heart and mind.

Be not uncouth, nor blind to grace,

The cockroach's worth, in its right
