Spit of cud and winter light

Teeth and nipples
Tongues and gristle
You can't make them
Out of grass
Like a Cow can
She can do it
Spit of cud and winter light
Then kaboom a massive skull
Sculpted from electric mud
Add the postage
Horns and hooves
Placid gaze
Please don't wish me
Ill and stew me
I'm your mother
Let the ocean
Soothe your furor
Plaint your rage
Ye harrowed lovers
Lukewarm moonlight
Soft as butter
Somehow limpid
Curious
A cow can do
What a man can't do
Before she melts
Into the grass
Chewing gum
With herds of angels
Infinitely meek
In golden pastures.
