APE MAN and BEAST
Is ape man and beast
Like God to Man?
Is it loyalty
We mistake for worship?
Is it gratitude
we mistake for idolatry
I have been blessed with great courage
Alongside my canine
Just the same
When my eyes fall their way
Those four legs are capable of miracles
When they are pups we feel like they couldn’t survive without us
But in actuality it’s us who needs them
The ape man’s soul is lost without the ability to show affection
Forever at war with instinct and carnality
Inside this rigid and foreign world
The paradox is that we built this prison ourselves
But the beast, the canine can pull us out
I challenge you
Blur the lines between the ape man and the beast
