3 of 3: Sentimental Cow

Cows behind my eyelids
The imprint of a day on the streets.

Today one turned his head and feigned attack
Taking the piss

And when they take a piss:
Concrete splash-back.

I'm lucky, look at me
Laughs red-tooth man

I look at him, he's wet
Lucky he's not shit-splattered.

I've never heard a moo
The silently superior type

But I suspect they chant Om
At the conclusion of morning yoga.

An unlikely parking warden
An effective stop sign

No grass for you
Urban bovine from the Far Side.
