Inner Monkey














Jeff: You remember that Biology class during our ninth grade.
Evan(smiles) : Yeah how can I forget that class. I'm sure I pissed him off real bad.
Jeff: Pissed is even a small word. He went insane after he read your poem at the back of your homework copy.
Evan:He had all the reasons to be mad. He realized I mentioned monkeys to be better than humans and especially better than the homo-sapien who taught us Biology.
Jeff: Do you still have that poem ?
Evan: As a matter of fact ! I do. Here it is .. (:|)




Jumping over few leftovers, the dogma
Our evolution is merely a joke
We yearn for that sweet banana
Lying in the debris of lies, our lives chain-smokes

Angels with tails, no wings flaps here
Morality subdued , sidelined by the fear
Fighting over the past mythologies
Present is an oasis of cries, outcome of theologies

Snatching one's smiles from others
Trying to be better than the other, we suffer
Corporate sophistication engulfs this jungle
Survival of the sickest is our royal rumble

Politicizing free will by mastering the names
Democracy or Dictatorship , everything is the same
Medical breakthroughs by experiments of primates
Bending nature's law, mother smiles on our fates

Loving each other due to physical similarities
Assimilating wisdom on top of fake solidarity
Religion is just another reproductive cycle of faith
Nothing ever changes if we read Bible or Macbeth

Jumping from these branches of intelligence
We shrine on such traits of divine negligence
That greedy teeth, power and money hungry
I scratch my back , by this stoned epiphany

There goes my banana, my jungle, my lust
Its all me , self-obsessed center of the universe

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe." - Albert Einstein

Coming to the words origination .. I guess after approximately 22 years of my life of shit digging, rag picking and ass kicking .. the pseudo wisdom has dumped enough of trash in my head with a whole barrel of foul and painful words ..like the way i way crafted this sentence too ..you see I speak a lot .. :P :D

Thanks for your feedback again !!!!
