There are many animals
In this jungle called life
And their minds are like varied poles
Each and its facial path
Whereas dogs think humans God
Cocks worship dawn in all earnest
As horses carry humans as their masters
Goats see no reason to respect their killers
But are not as hostile as lions
The head is different from the eyes
Although eyes dwell on head
The ears are secluded from the face
Although they have the power of hearing
Legs are far below heads
Although they move before heads become mobile
But in all, dynamics work
Each has its duty
Whether main or deputy
Each has its say
Whether through mouths or sickness
Each has its beauty and need
And each will be mourned either in passing or dense
And the world gets all
