sheep-ify...
Today I had the funniest thought. Then I realized it wasn't so much funny than it was dangerously ironic. But the important part is, I forgot what the thought was about.
Nobody cares, of course. Nobody cares about the stray thinker in a flock of ovines. Nobody cares that the black fleece doesn't quite match with the monotonous dirty white of the others. If he was dirty, nobody would notice; dirt doesn't show up as well.
It was once observed that a whole flock of sheep flung themselves off a cliff after they saw one of their own accidentally fall over. If everyone threw themselves off a cliff, would you?
The black sheep likewise wanted to follow. But he wasn't one to fling himself off a cliff. No, no. If he was going to follow popular sentiment, he would at least do it his way. Instead, he took a convenient rocky outcropping leading down. Where he found a pile of unprocessed mutton. Feeling confused, the black sheep went off to join the cows.

thy post doth be very intellectual, jinneth.
"Wither goest thou Black Sheep?"
"To the bovine settlement over hither hill."
"Knowest thou whether they will accept thy black fleece?"
they wouldn't be able to notice, actually. cows are colour blind.
ehh..dishonourable black sheep. Once a sheep always a sheep. He should have followed his fellow sheep...even to the death. How can simply go n join cows wan..such a traitor. Sometimes i wonder where unfailing loyalty has gone to these days.....
