EDITOR'S NOTE
I once knew a goat
who never questioned my lie.
He only invited me
to goat parties, which were quite
wonderful.

Once, I was so satisfied
with my goat friend, I
laminated a certificate
with his unpronounceable
name scrawled
across the bottom.

I presented it to him
at a grand ceremony
we held in the brown barn.

The cheering hens looked fantastic.
