Poems - an incredulous intelligence

an incredulous intelligence

by delapruch

sharing 98.2% of the same DNA
with the chimpanzees who
caged amongst us mighty humans,
sit there for our amusement,
scratching their ass &
waiting for the next kid in the zoo
to press their stupid face up to the
glass,
we march around as if our
intelligence
was something special,
never pondering for a moment
that while we treat those so very much
like us
with an embarrassing lack of
hospitality,
there may very well be others, elsewhere,
outside our little pubic planet,
who have just a little bit more than
what we have,
a situation in which WE
hold only 98.2% of what they do,
a situation in which the cages are being
sprayed out,
so that sooner or later,
it is US
that will be on display
(the “lucky” members of our decrepit
species),
so that their own little extraterrestrial
rug-rats unaware of their callow
precocity,
can watch us play with our own feces,
masturbate &
pick at the bugs & fleas in our hair,
while we quietly wish that we hadn’t been so
pretentious
when looking at the life around us,
having taken more time to think
before our proverbial
leaps.
