The Cow's Revenge
Oh my tummy aches
something I ate I think?
like a cow?
“Geeezzzz, the pay backs a female dog.”
Been trying not to eat fellow mammals.
Been rewarded with a sweet tum tum.
But, my man’s a meat eater …growl
and I succumbed.
Oh my tummy aches
like an undigested third world country.
Well, even some of them don’t eat cows!
One really shouldn’t eat things with eyes,
in one end and out the other;
like a minority student in an inner city school
no child left behind
my behind.
Sometimes life’s a female dog
but why blame the sweet dog
Just don’t ingest anything with two eyes
and what comes out will be as sweet as what went in.
