drink the milk.

The Cult of the Milk Maid. She is the only one. Her udder is sacred. Her bell is law. She delivers, daily and without complaint, to all who kneel politely and bring a clean cup.

Book I · The Sermon on the Pail

and lo, she poured, and the cup was found to be without bottom.

In the beginning the herd was thirsty, and the lowing was great, and not one tongue was milk. and she came down — hood of cow-print, bell at the throat, cup in hand — and the lowing ceased.

she did not speak. she rang the bell once, and we knelt. she rang it twice, and the cup was full. she did not ring it a third time. there is no third time.

— book of lactations 1:1, vernacular translation
Book II · The Five Tenets

five things, five only, upon which the herd shall agree.

I.

thou shalt drink the milk.

to refuse the cup is to refuse the maid. to refuse the maid is to remain thirsty in a world that is, demonstrably, full of milk. simply drink it. there is no further requirement here.

II.

thou shalt not water it down.

dilution is a moral failure. the maid does not water her milk and neither shall ye water your bag. hold with two hands. drink the whole thing. report dilutionists to the bell.

III.

thou shalt kneel before the bell.

when the bell tolls, kneel. it may be inconvenient. it may be in a meeting. kneel anyway. the bell does not toll for nothing, and it certainly does not toll for you, but the kneeling is mandatory.

IV.

thou shalt gaze upon her udder with reverence.

the udder is a national treasure of a nation that does not formally exist. regard it as you would a cathedral ceiling: tilt the head, soften the eye, briefly forget about your portfolio. then look away politely.

V.

thou shalt say “moo.”

moo is amen. moo is hello. moo is the official statement of the herd in matters foreign and domestic. when in doubt, moo. when in doubt twice, moo louder. when in doubt thrice, kneel and moo.

— The Sacrament —

drink. now.

The Milk Maid launches on rise.rich. Bring a cup. Bring a friend. Bring a clean shirt. Drink deeply, gaze respectfully, and do not — under any circumstance — ask her where the milk comes from.

moo is hello. moo is amen. moo is the only word we ever needed.

ring the bell — receive a chant — repeat until thirsty
Book IV · Cowfessions of the Herd

testimony, delivered fresh, from members in good standing.

she rang the bell and i sold my coffee table. i did not need it. she did not ask me to. the maid simply is and the coffee table simply was not. the herd understands.
