No Relatives Of Mine
by David Pekrul
copyright 07-20-2005


Age Rating: 7 to 127

 
I was raised in Africa,
And live up in a tree,
You may think I'm crazy, but
There's nothing wrong with me.

I have a loving family, and
Respect from all my kin,
I care for them immensely, and
I'm happy here within.

I see so many other ones,
Just coping with their lives,
While fighting in their neighbourhood,
And cheating on their wives.

But they are only human-beings,
Their kind is very old,
They say they are improving some,
Or so I have been told.

They say we've much in common, that
Their fathers came from me,
But I will not believe a word,
For it could never be.

And yet they live amongst our kind,
While causing such pollution,
And say that we are relatives,
By so-called evolution.

With that I have a problem, for
They're not at all like me,
For I am just a monkey here,
A'hangin' from a tree.

This is really good! In my opinion, everything works, imagery, fluidity, rhyming scheme and subject matter! I don't know how I missed this one!

I really like your poetry alot. This is another great as Brian commented. It flows and is easy to read and understand. As a rhymer myself, two thumb's up!

Another gem from one of the masters.
I wish I hadn't read it until tomorrow morning. I love to start the day with a laugh.

I would think any self respecting primate. (The originals I mean).
Would disown the 'human' race, and who could blame them.
Have you ever watched them in a zoo? I'm sure they think that we have been brought to them, so that they can study us.

What makes you think that it was evolution and not regression. I wish I could hang from a tree limb and eat bananas. It would take a stout limb! Anthony

OMG I LOVED THIS!!!!

I never thought of evolution from the monkeys point of view...if they can think, they must be disgusted with the thought that we could have come from them
