Superfarmer
Stephen Knox 1970 (Bygland)
Of all of the grains that we’ve opted to eat.
Most popular of these, is the one we call wheat.
The harvest of wheat now involves something new.
I’ll lay it all out so that we can review
When harvesting wheat it’s important to know.
You’ll increase your profit if the moisture is low.
To do this you dry it by spraying to kill. So the poisons attached will go right to the mill
If that doesn’t scare you and fill you with dread.
This wheat is then used in the food we call bread.
As cancer rates grow and more people get sick.
Take a look at your diet and quit believing their shtick.
Since poisoning our food has become the new norm. I’ve made it my duty to share, and inform.
