she really no longer notices, the noticing is not needed.
I am sauntering down my lane and around the curve, unexpectedly to me but fully in the moment of slanted elongated shades of early eve, sun sizzling as it touches the cold earth, is Bessy…with a slow swing of her wide hairy hips and hardly a glance my way, udder swaying fully under her belly. silently with her jaws own working, she meanders on since the lane’s way is wire gird. perhaps she wonders if it is to keep the noisy petro fed pinned and at bay, the wheeled rolling beasts properly healed. then there is me, strolling the fair far end also slipping in between the elongated shadows gravel crunching below foot, am I in or out? yet she, she is neither black nor white, just a simple soft warm pale brown. i imagine pressing up against that warm softness with its beating rhythms, listening. where is the belonging? the herd?

Hello Kathryn,
I really like your descriptions. Your prose has to me a bit of Jack Kerouac's Spontaneous Prose in it.
I'm a professional actor and freelance writer based in New York City. I also have a blog where I write about acting, writing, and the arts in general. I was looking for followers when I came upon your blog, quite by chance actually. I think you might be interested in what I write. Some of my posts are a bit technical, others are more inspired, descriptive, and more lyrical.
I'd be happy if you came to visit my blog, and even happier if you decided to follow and leave comments whenever you feel like sharing.
Your blog is cute. I'm a follower and will be visiting soon:)
All the best,
Jay
