Consider the Naked Ape!
Tell them: “The team is All!”
They’ll gladly kill for the team!
(Just tell them when they’re small!)
The things they learn in youth
They’ll carry to the grave.
(They learn a limited “truth”—
Little enough to save.)
They live their limited lives
In cocoons of love and hate.
(One often becomes the other;
It’s largely a matter of Fate.)
They dance to whistled tunes,
Espousing mystical rot.
(Some of it may be sound;
Most is probably not.)
Each understands according
To things misunderstood:
A shadow-world in dumb-show
Where “evil” contends with “good.”
Meantime, the stars are whirling
And
Towards what—we can’t decide.)
Maybe… a greater vision;
Maybe, a global hell:
Something beyond derision,
Or something too horrid to tell….
