The Goat Convention

The goats held a convention. “We want liberation! ” They bleated boldly. “I want to hear concrete suggestions”, Advised the chairman gently. “And tabula rasa”, he added. The result, however, Was only a long and silent pause. Eventually though one goat rose To say something. He cleared his throat And valiantly addressed the assembly: “Our liberation and the struggle To achieve equal rights go hand in hand. So, in view of the fact That men can wear goatees, I propose that we goats also start To wear manly fashioned beards”.
