Laugh at your jokes. Whatever you want to be or however you want others to see you this is a great poem to express just that!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>These poems are from <a style=\"color: #000000\" href=\"https:\/\/poetryarchive.org\/poet\/selima-hill\/\">Selima Hill&#8217;s<\/a> Cow poem<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">This poem is about the author&#8217;s comparison with an animal or an inanimate object.
