Cowboy Reincarnation by Wallace McRae

"What does re-incarnation mean?"
A cowpoke asked his friend.
His pal replied, "It happens 'Slim',
When life has reached its end.
They comb yer hair, and wash yer neck,
And clean yer fingernails,
And lay you in a padded box
Away from life’s travails."

"The box and you goes in a hole,
That’s been dug in the ground.
Re-incarnation starts in when
You're planted ‘neath a mound.
Them clods melt down, just like yer box,
And you who is inside.
And then you're just beginnin’ on
Yer transformation ride."

"In a while, the grass’ll grow
Upon yer rendered mound.
Till some day on yer moldered grave
A lonely flower is found.
And say a hoss should wander by
And graze upon this flower
That once wuz you, but now’s become
Yer vegetative bower."

"The posy that the hoss done ate;
This with his other feed,
Makes bone, and fat, and muscle
Essential to the steed,
But some is left that he can’t use
And so it passes through,
And finally lays on the ground
This thing, that once wuz you."

"Then say, by chance, I wanders by
And sees this on the ground,
And I ponders, and I wonders at,
This object that I found.
I thinks of reincarnation,
Of life and death, and such,
And come away concludin’: 'Slim',
You ain’t changed, all that much!" 

"Wallace McRae"
