Animals and People

4/9/17 Vultures circled overhead then swooped in Towards the remains of a human Nearby an outcrop of rocks that protruded Another morning filled with fog A frog sat upon a log Of which he was fond Inside a pond full of fronds Within a bog Located way beyond A horse named Cork participated in all sorts of sports Involving some kind of course Holding its own head up high, while it continued forth Even when the winds blew with force From the south, east, west or north Close and far from any wharf They won so often that there owner bought a porsche And new home with a beautiful porch A cat that was a black Attacked a rat Then ate it as a snack Rather fast In a patch of grass Before it groomed and scratched Then sat in the back of a shack Nearby a hat rack and took a nap At last Out of town Across a field that was recently plowed A brown cow sat down On the ground Below a sky with little clouds After it had some chow Before, during and after it haled A person had a few too many pale ales Then went off the rails By pulling off a chick's ponytail And getting caught with a scale Next day woke up in jail With no bail And realized they had failed In their own coffin another nail Eventually was released and got home to bills in the mail And nothing but bread that was stale So they inhaled And focused on how to prevail Throughout the trail Before seeing boats in the distance with sails Soon after flew by a flock of quail And then far away towards the horizon, water spouted from a whale By: Dalton Ogletree
