Ode to a Goat

OFFICE ACCESSORIES ARE NOT FOR USE ON FRIENDS

We stapled my one goat friend.

3 staples

Left ear

No lidocaine.

No sedation.

Peeling apart the day old healing

Only to squirt some cleansing fire in it

And then, to STAPLE it closed again.

Jordan, your bleats were like staples in

my own heart.

You are my best goat friend and were brave in a way only a ruminant can be.
