He looked to the beasts of the field;

Though others grew haggard with grief, he

Maintained a refusal to quake

So long as our bulls remained beefy

And a steak was a steak.

But now there is cause to repine, a

Dread portent of what to expect:

A bull has got loose in the china

And nothing, no, nothing's been wrecked.

Where fragments were wont to be scattered
