Ole Bessie

Oblivious she lay on her bed in soft hay Ole Bessie snores the whole night away While I twist and turn as my heart and pulse churn at explosions that rock my stairway Perchance I awake before next the ground shake Let me please be a cow ~ I do pray

Well, Were I a cow, I too could be oblivious to the bombs and missiles dropping all around me...
