Cow in Germany goes AWOL and lives

A cow decided
it was just
not ready
life and death was
not its cup of tea
not its mug of eart grey
not its toast and honey
it got, on its bike
and ran away

every cow and every
single earthling
ever facing
having its throat slit
must have thought
no thank you I am out of here
barbed wire fences
all I need is grit

hoisted on a
bloody rusty gantry
and have to reminisce
and face the pain
its not as if the sun
has ever shone on me
or for that matter
have I felt the rain
spirited earthlings
have to make the effort
and this young soul
took on the farmer, who
chased her with his tractor
and found her
in a swimming pool
stressed out turning blue

it took a lot of courage
and one has to be adept
clearly she had all the balls
and in that moment swept
across the field and off
imagine who does want to die?
and for her efforts
she’s been rescued
so it was worth the try

a sanctuary is taking her
her life now it will be
wonderful and peaceful
its an end to misery
sun on her back,
rain in her face
fresh green grass
which will be ace
a good news story
a good end
for she’s become
the people’s friend
