We Are Animals
fighting back instinct for modern civilization
denying truth for some desperate stab
at feeling special; above and beyond
making ourselves jealous
insecure
imaginatively punishing others for doing
what we are also doing ourselves
and despite our best efforts
and through all of our confusion
and even for being brutally, fervently
faithful
(because it's 'the done thing')
human x is to human y
as sperm is to egg
we are animals
