Happy as a Dog’s Tail

Happy as something unimportant

and free as a thing unimportant.

As something no one prizes

and which does not prize itself.

As something mocked by all

and which mocks at their mockery.

As laughter without serious reason.

As a yell able to out yell itself.

Happy as no matter what,

as any no matter what.

 

Happy

as a dog’s tail.
