Oxen by Adam Soper

Because I could not drag for Oxen,
they did kindly drag for me.
Pause to drag, like Oxen do.

I saw the the humblest ranch hand of my generation destroyed,
How I mourned the cowherd.
Does the cowherd make you shiver?
does it?

Don't belive that the ngoma is noncompetitive?
the ngoma is competitive beyond belief.
Does the ngoma make you shiver?
does it?

How happy are big shepherds!
Never forget the important and extended shepherds.

Adam Soper is an improviser, performer and composer based in the North East of England
