Chasing (Mao) Cows Across the Universe

Words are flying out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting thorough my open mind
Possessing and caressing me

A (mao) cow is a nocturnal animal. Extremely lazy and greedy, it likes to sleep in during the day and only wake up to feed as and when it likes before going back to sleep. It thrives in the night where the temperature is cooler and there is less chance of over-exerting itself or getting cooked by the sun.

Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes
That call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a
restless wind inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as
they make their way across the universe

The (mao) cow likes to feed on a variety of things. Usually it will try to make do with anything it can find near it. Be it chocolates, wine, Pa Pa or some version of canned soup. However, bring the (mao) cow out for supper and it will like to order excessively and top off the meal with an Oolong tea or two. If the (mao) cow is not fed appropriately, it will not be happy. Conversely, once it is fed, it will be happy and will be easier to deal with.

Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe

The (mao) cow likes to travel in pairs. Because it is lazy inherently, it also likes to keep lazy pets like little brown dogs that think that they are white. The pet must also be able to have the ability to sleep the entire day away so that it does not disturb the living habits of the (mao) cow. (Mao) cows are contented with each others company and can stay that way for eons.
