A primal exchange

I milk my cow.

I buy and bring her hay,

grain and special minerals.

I give her safety and a dry bed,

I leave her in her peace.

She lets me catch her, tie her,

grab her teats and squeeze them.

She lets me take her body’s product.

She sniffs and licks her calf,

nose to tail, shoulder to belly.

I don’t interfere,

She lets me look on.

To make a contract, you need:

An offer,

and acceptance.
