Man and burro

The donkey appears to be walking behind the man and pushing him with his nose, as donkeys sometimes do. I’ve been looking at this yard for over 20 years, and the more I look, the tackier it gets. It reminds me of a favorite expression my ex-mother-in-law used to use: “It’s something on a rat’s tail.” I don’t know what it means, but it’s kind of catchy, don’t you think?
