IN THE COMPANY OF COWS

Posted on July 15, 2023 by | 2 Comments

 

It’s a dirty trick

not to bring ‘hello hay’

by flake or bale,

 

to show empty-handed

with a cluttered mind

from another world.

 

If I had the time

I’d stay the day among them,

forget myself

 

and lie down and learn

to chew my cud

without thinking.

    I love the message. Simple, poignant, making my mind go to the places you find with the cows.

    Without comment on intellectual parity, relieving that “cluttered mind from another world” has been your elixir.
