Something We can all agree on from the Boss

I just read a great poem that beef men on both sides of the isle can agree upon. Both Gelbvieh and Angus people can agree that when it comes spring and you’re out in the freezing cold and if it's not cold the knee deep mud checking heifers to see if any are going to calve tonight and then that one does, but oh what's wrong she started over an hour ago and s and it is about Mr. Dewey’s calving technique were he uses a calving chain around the in trouble calf’s foot then he puts a modified hay hook on the chain. After he puts the hook on he puts his mud boots through the hook and pushes down on the cow while he pulls with his foot. One time however he came straight from town with his city shoes on and not his mud boots and his feet went through the hook and the cow drug him through the prairie banging him up well and giving him a moldy cheese looking shiner upon his left eye. He hasn't gotten very far all I can see is a foot and it looks like a backwards foot. So what do you do, you go get the bucket and put the water in it and put the soap in it to help make everything more clean when this calf comes out. Then you put your hook and chains in the warm soapy water and pull out the pulling rig. You go out and put the chains on feet sticking out and hook it up to the rig and pull the calf. Boy it's a biggen this time. Needless to say it's no fun when you have to pull a calf at two in the morning. Baxter Black however doesn't do it the same way. In his anthology Cowful of cowboy poetry there is one titled Mr. Dewey's Hook and chain.
