The bull said, “Lesson one: fly.”
The rider replied, “I’d rather not try.”
But dust is a teacher both stubborn and stern,
and tonight’s class featured a rapid return.
One lay studying grass at close range,
the other explored freedom’s full range.
The scoreboard was brief, the verdict clear
the bull kept the saddle-free atmosphere.
