( The cannibal Cow)

Moo moo moo
On our cud we chew

That old jersey
Going down smooth

Mad you are
When you are what you eat

Cows eating cows
Quit pulling my teat!

Well now I know how mad cow disease got started! If you're in the moooood for a tasteless cannibal joke, proceed with caution... "Did you hear about the cannibal who had a wife and ate children?" Sorry about that. Your poem made me chuckle, Mo.

Lol a funny one at that Maureen. I remember a Far Side strip with a bunch of cows standing around one sitting at a table with fork and knife in hand saying, "We taste like chicken." Lol
