We clipped the tail and he does not
And cut his paws to kitchen feet
Here is a mark of my legless
A living lump collar and keep
Feel the wounds that I have?
Bonedigger his heart in the valley!
I never his heart in the valley!
We cut the claws and he does not
The simplest unmuzzled way
Now he is backless and human
No common tongue or thing to say!
We split the litter and he does not
Sleeping in piles and nuzzling
Once we decided which creature to
His useless mother she did
Feel the wounds that I have?
And the pat hand could convey
And likewise the lick is not love
