Cash Cows

Amma promised her farmers free cows,

To yield returns better than the Dow,

Sixty thousand bovine

Are hard to assign;

O Jayalalitha, the question is how. 

Delhi's obstacle race

Delhi's citizens run an obstacle race,

Straddling rubble mounds at a quick pace,

Mosquitoes bite their guts,

Buffaloes kick their butts

And hurl them in the flood waters' embrace.
