Must I Act Like a Goat

Must I act like a Goat for you to know
that I am not a Goat?
Goats are stupid and senseless but I am not!
Treat me not like a Goat 'cause I am not one!
You know it all but never give me a breathing space.



Must I act like a Goat to show you that i
Don't like your character and face?
You think I can't  wait and see another
Who can over throw you in the same act.
Change your attitude towards others in your life.
We are all in a learning field of life.



You think that I am a Goat because I acted like one?
No I am not, I did that to get something from you.
Must I act like goat always to you in life?
I may be one today but tomorrow I will not!
Differentiate me from those Goats at your door,
I am not one of them!

Cool piece. I like your transition from not been judgemental to beenntolerant. Nonetheless, would goat have been the best animal to use? Goats are not stupid or senseless. They could be docile but they are very rational animals. Well done bro.
