I had wondered about the fate of the animals myself (might chalk it up to raw curiosity, ignorant as I am of wimminly).
That aside, I cannot forbear to compliment you, Ann, on a truly praise-worthy poem. A curious side-effect of it, or proof of its resonance rather: the prospect it describes came into my head throughout the day when I least expected. I found I could never be bored...
Though worked to death, bored I was not--
I had your poem's chow for thought
And chewed on it a lot through toil.
Sustaining me, it did not spoil.
