The Thinking Toad
We strive for intellect and thoughtfulness
wisdom, brain and wit
and it's sad that some don't know the half of it.
The torment of ignorance is the lightest load.
Consider the agony of the thinking toad,
or the jersey cow?
she’d shrink in discontent,
her udder’s dry!
if she knew she feeds the criminal, the hypocrite,
she’d cry.
and…
There’d be anguish in the minds of mourning hens
if they knew and understood their chicks
deep fried for men.
that lazy house pet, dog or cat
would weep a woeful tear of two ... or laugh in great guffaws
if it considered
the importance of what men do. © pat Ramsden
I agree.. its a leap.
perhaps the toad
needs to ponder his mate crushed
to mush on a gravelly road
and
wonder what urgent errand
inspired such disasterous end.

That was a huge jump from the thinking toad to the jersey cow....but, I love the title so it must stand.
I like this, it's the kind of thought spiral that afflicts me quite often.
As I drive by the tiny, gambolling lambs I think 'Thank goodness they, and their Mums aren't sentient beings'
