Human Animal
Renate Fekete 1945 (Poszon)
The hyper-vented
pseudo- intellectuals
sit on their backsides
in institutions
Peeping out at reality
from their hot- houses
full of irregularities
inundated with weird ideas
at the gentle people
who just need to live
despairing for them
at such crazed irregularities
Life has died
feeling diminished
was I hungry yesterday
did I sleep last night
Go to work to forget
designed by the weirdos
full of irregularities
in their hot houses
Passing by
wondering at
was that a human toe
Big Brother playing too!
