__________________________________________________________LIKE A SHEEP
Translated by Charles Cantalupo & Ghirmai Negash
Led with a rope around his neck,
He blindly followed the trader
And the butcher and blithely thought
Of grazing in a new country.They gave him their official seal
And off he went, but they forgot
Or lost his documentation,
Which he never bothered to get.Now he is stuck. What will he do?
Are they his biggest problem?
Back home he's forgotten.
He forgets where he is, too.
