Running With the Bulls

Now, let’s talk about something really nuts.

Let’s beat our heads against the wall

To find the logic, make some sense of

Running with Pamplona’s bulls.

How does such insane tradition

Find its’ feet? Much less a home.

How did this get started? What sad fiendish fluke

Has done us in?

Humans are of poor design to

Challenge nature’s noble beast,

A snorting, snarling mass of muscle,

Power-packed on cloven hoof.

But no one ever said that every person

Is of genius born,

And ego plus stupidity is

Just enough to do us ill.

Oh, Dear God, please have pity.

Show mercy on these fools,

These addle-minded idiots

Running with the bulls.
