Minator

I was quite happy in the meadow
Munching on that tender grass
The flies annoyed me in ways you can't perceive.
For they were always buzzing around my ass.

It's not something that I could stop
For I'm a cow and without hands
You would think that evolution
Would have had a better plan.

So munching away, with time to play
Soldiers fill my field
They had long and spikey things
And some of them had shields.

They took me from my pasture
The place where I was born
Dragged me to a labyrinth
They Sharpened up my horns.

I wandered round it lonely
just seeking someone with which to spend my days.
They would drop someone in every now and then
But they got lost within the maze.

I would never hurt them
I just wanted to find a friend
But with years down here I fill men with fear
Now I wish to meet my end.

I've been in this dark place for so long
That I no longer produce milk
But I hope my tale floats in minds and hearts
In threads as fine as silk

You may say I'm the beast below
And I still reside here now
But I am not an evil monster.

DUDES! I'm just a cow!

    Very clever and witty. That tail should be longer and have a fly swat attached to it. Lol

      Giggles.

      Personally I rather like having hands that can control a lighter and a can of aerosol at the same time.

      Funny as dude
