Mulish
A mule is so recalcitrant,
It can be infuriating,
Always pretending that it can’t,
While balking and hesitating.
With complaints, you’ll hear it braying,
As it gives you the evil eye.
In mule talk, we know it’s saying,
“You can’t make me, don’t even try!”
Venture too near to its derriere,
And you’ll be sore for quite a while.
It will kick you into the air -
Such rudeness is simply its style.
To make it move, you must use force -
Why do you think its ears protrude?
They’re for yanking, unlike the horse,
With user friendly attitude.
