Topic: 2009 is the Year of the Ox, a beast of burden that occupies very little space in our literary history. Babe the blue ox has pretty much had to hold it down in that world, so help keep him company by writing an ode to the ox. A poem is probably the most fun way to go, but feel free to write in any style you want. Read more about the year of the ox on Wikipedia.
With a "get up" here and a "back up" there and a couple of "whoa" "gee" "haw"s, that's how we work the day away in the hairy ol' land of ox.
With a "plow" "haul" here and a "transport" there, we're a couple of handy steers, that's how we works the day away in the hairy ol' land of ox.
