I could be wrong on this statement, but I thought that the methane from cows came from their burps and not from under their tails. I was informed that this comes with being a ruminate with several stomachs. So perhaps it is time to regulate all wild ruminates (if you can catch them).

The Indifferent Earth.

Tax the moon.

Regulate the sun.

Lay down the law to all the stars.

Tell the wind and seas to obey the rules.

And arrest all those who don’t.

Organize the trees, rank the fish,

regiment the bees.

Put all the plants and animals in their place.

Do whatever you wish.

The Earth will turn,

the sun will rise,

the stars will fill the night,

and the rain and clouds will grid the Earth.

And when we and all our human laws

are finally gone,

the seas and land and all the life thereon,

will still remain.

It is then that our sun-bleached bones

and crumbling ruins will slowly erode away,

settling on the sea floor bed

to become the first layer of the Post Holocene.
