Cows on Rampage

Here they come, strolling down the sidewalk,
a gang of them, switchblades at the ready,
mooing their contempt at all they pass,
leather jackets tattooed with messages,
like “Mother” and “Hell’s Herd on Stampede.”
Full of loud and lewd suggestions
to any bull that crosses their path,
while shoving sharks into the bushes.
