The Goats That Stare at Hay

They see the hay. They want the hay. They will have the hay.

There is a look a goat gives you when the hay is late. It is not anger. It is not sadness. It is a very specific form of existential judgment that suggests you have failed not just them, but the entire concept of morning routines.
