The Green Silenceup into the silence the green
silence with a white earth in ityou will(kiss me)go
out into the morning the young
morning with a warm world in it(kiss me)you will go
on into the sunlight the fine
sunlight with a firm day in ityou will go(kiss me
down into your memory and
a memory and memoryi)kiss me(will go)
To Hump A Cowthe way to hump a cow is not
to get yourself a stool
but draw a line around the spot
and call it beautifoolto multiply because and why
dividing thens by nows
and adding and(i understand)
is hows to hump a cowsthe way to hump a cow is not
to elevate your tool
but drop a penny in the slot
and bellow like a boolto lay a wreath from ancient greath
on insulated brows
(while tossing boms at uncle toms)
is hows to hump a cowsthe way to hump a cow is not
to push and then to pull
but practicing the art of swot
to preach the golden rullto vote for me(all decent mem
and wonens will allows
which if they don't to hell with them)
is hows to hump a cows--- From 50 Poems
