All of the cows are smarter than us, preachers and prophets are these bovine heirs. Mooing mute mayhem from their pulpits of excrement. All the cows are knowledge unbound, a microcosm of man, the vacant eyed consumer producing only bile fluids same ingredients the simian digest: talk show host and soap opera queen. The fountain of life attained from a leak sprung tap, still they hesitate until their benevolent cannibal gods leave. The panic and the poison, paranoia in their eyes. All of the cows are smarter than us, When F&M descends They would immunise Not sentence themselves to the death camps. All of the cows are smarter than us coated in dirt, littered with flies how sweet their sacrifice stewing oven juice. How then that these intellectual icons never foresee the abattoir? "you are what you own in this land, you can be king and it all depends on the view and what you can see" Whipping boy |

all the while I was reading this I was thinking...'until they have mad-cow disease' and then you brought foot and mouth into the piece...so maybe they've already gone mad. the last statement, though, certainly offers food for thought |

MOO MOO back Serenity, oh deep..lol you kidder. Thanks for your reply and for noting the sarcasm. Decaflame, I am blushing red.... you are far too kind. Vas, you noticed the Foot and mouth reference. Just to clarify Ireland is now safe to enter we just changed the date of our St Patrick's parade to keep out all the other countries lol kidding of course.

I found this very interesting and almost funny despite the sadness. Poor generous cows, but of course you are kidding about their intelligence. Good job. Joyce |
