Herd It B4

A genie was rubbed the wrong way
And sulked in a bottle all day
When its Master drank
It pulled a sly prank
And hid the way to San Jose

Herd It Before

A chocolate brownie pop tart
Is the fastest weigh to her heart
But as her best friend
You know she'll break wind
That will rocket right off the chart!

The Un --- Herd Nerd

To follow the herd is absurd,
Shout,holler and scream;
If you want to be heard?

Herd Immunity

Herd immunity, herd immunity,
corona viruses hence have absurd impunity,
multiply free and spread in spree over triumphant glee, 
along effortless thoroughfare to every defenseless community.

Shepherd of the Herd

Shepherd of the Herd

Not only is God still shepherd of the herd,
Remember something that had occurred;
He saw thorough story,
And I gave Him glory;
Even enhanced vision which was blurred.

Premium Member Johnny Hurd ??Heard of Herd??

In Pre-school Johnny Hurd got up and spoke
Yesterday, I saw a flock of cows;
                      "Herd"
                      " HUH "
                  "Herd of cows"
Yes, I've Heard of cows, may I finish my joke

Premium Member Dragon Watches Herd Girl

Dragon keeps his eye on herder girl who cares for the sheep
He pretends to slumber, but he is in no way asleep.
The sheep are heading up the mountain, it is ungodly steep
He hears the little ones making mewing sounds; one makes a bleep

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ frost-etched grass whispers low, bison flank touches flank—breath clouds merge. No lone head lifts. an ancient pulse beneath snow~ Where the mass goes, I must go.

Cull the Herd

Cull the herd
But be aware
More will follow
More who dare

Men aspire
Each position
Need we call them
Politician

Can we stop
The lies convening
Is there anyone
All-seeing

Route be damned
The ship off course
We've been fated
This remorse

Vote him down
But look once more
Those replace him
By the score

A Herd of Swine

Oh Lord, please put me in the clear
Though a man like  me shouldn't have your ear
It sounds so silly in my mind
To call upon Who I defy
That's why
I'm like a demon now
Praying only to be swine
Oh Lord, I trample out a path
And you ingest the aftermath
I kind of liked that cross of mine
Put it round my neck 
Left you behind
That's why
I'm like a demon now
Praying only to be swine

Independence From The Herd

The herd will outnumber you 
with an opinion you’re equal too
the echo chamber is hollow 
so those ego chasers follow 
as they parrot the sheep 
opinions they can keep 
because safety means acceptance 
and popularity has importance 
so they’re finally fitting in 
and it soothes the soul within 
that’s when you can walk alone 
stronger than the herd have known 
thinking for yourself 
as they copy someone else

Scare Crow For Mean Pests

Do please, your loins gird;
The pest is a bird:  
Low-flying, sharp beak,
It’d outsmart The Weak!  

Plainly take my word:
Leave the grazing herd 
On plains, at the peak, 
Your protections leak!

Scarecrow would pests cow 
And pests won’t farms plough;
In your food-rich farm 
The birds sure means harm…

Try you should Scare Crow. 
I shall show you How:
‘Ugly clothes your balm 
A shirt with one arm!
Their presence pest loathes:
Plants putting on clothes!

Premium Member Herd or Family

Who are we as animals
Herd or family mammals?
Maybe Clockwork Oranges
In the Apple storages?     
The Lefts put it clearer
Herd is far superior
The Rights strongly disagree
They stand for a family
For the Middle of the Roaders
We are renters or the owners
Most of the non-party folk
Deem that issue as a joke
As for me, we’re all the same
Under any term or name
Be it herd or family
What we are preferably 
Either side can’t cut my tax
So the real sense it lacks.

Wasn't the Herd Complete Without Me? (Part 2)

PART TWO 

The moon is always perfect, no matter what shape it wears. You can't blame the moon for never letting the star shine. Even the star was busy gazing at that beauty, burning itself just to glow. Maybe it's because you are the side dish, and not the main.

Nothing compares to the evolution of trying - every person hoping to shine like the moon - and still, in the end, losing even the chance to be a star.

Even time doesn't change you. You just learn to live with it.
