Your Hair is Like a Flock of Goats

 

(Y)our hair is like a flock of goats

Frisking down the slopes of Gilead

 

                                                       -Song of Songs, 4:5-6

 

Even in a farming community

That awkward compliment you’d better keep

So ask her this joke (if she grants you immunity):

Do goats have mohair than sheep?

 

 

 

 

(“Do goats have mohair than sheep?” is an old, old, old joke.)
