Thinking

As I looked at this human in front of me I was wondering what they were doing and what were they wearing. This human was sitting there on this big rock. He had this bag thing that seemed like it was filled with food. I took a long look at this human and was wondering why they had all this stuff on them. This human seems very stupid and useless. I kept looking at them and they pulled these black things they put on their eyes. I was confused, can’t they see perfectly fine without those black things.

A while went by since they moved again. I started to go back and get food for my family. Right before I turned they pulled a banana out of their magical bag. I thought to myself that instead of going to find food I could take theirs. I started very slowly to get close.

Chicken

I look into these chickens eyes
He looks into mine
He looks confused
And so do I
"Who are you looking at" I exclaim
The chicken still stares
I try to look away
The chicken is still staring at me
I walk into my house to rid the chicken
The chicken then goes away
I then come back out to feed the cows
The chicken follows me and stares at me
I think this chicken might have a thing for me
The chicken doesn't leave me alone
I decide to bring the chicken into the house
I decide to go to bed
With the chicken being in the house im afraid shell get into trouble
The chicken was beside me when I woke up
I think I made a new friend...
The chicken agrees in her own mind that I am a friend

Vexed

Oh look, a useless mongrel those idiot people call children. I wonder how these people have the patience to deal with them. Why do these people like things that are sticky and scream all the time? They should just have monkeys, the best species around. We aren’t sticky, we usually don’t scream, and we only have murderous thoughts once in a while. Or we should continue to have children, but just store them in cages. I have tried many a time to make friends with these humans, but when they killed my cousin Harambe I lost all interest. Humans used to be the center of my universe, but now I think of them as monkey-hating killing machines. Harambe was the monkey to make me who I am today, without him I’m lost. And he was killed for a child! My hate for children and people pours out of me and it is a good thing I stuck behind these bars for I would end this world with my agony. For there is one thing people should consider; why did you kill my loved one, when he didn’t kill yours?

Monkey

“Sup, my guy? My name’s Rico! What’s your name? You look like a Henry to me for some reason. You are very interesting! Indeed, yes! Your mind is overflowing with thoughts right now, I just know it! You’re wondering how I know (I know that too.) It’s because I’m a mind reader.

Now, I’m going to ask you some questions, ok? You don’t need to answer them, though, because I know exactly what you’re thinking. What’s your favorite color? Mac N’ Cheese? Never heard of that one before. Ok, what’s your favorite fruit? Blue? Never heard of that either. What’s your favorite movie? Apple? What!!!??? Ok, I’m just going to stop asking questions now, because I think you’re dreaming. Bye!

I am the Monkey

The monkey is looking at me
it's eyes full of words
full of questions
Those eyes ask me

What is your name?

My lips peel open in a rush
I don't know

It's on the tip of my tongue

but I'm beginning to forget

Why are you forgetting?

I sigh
I wish I could tell you
the monkey seems to pause
his charcoal fur smokey
like an apparition
his eyes seem to be shifting in depth
as though he is looking deeper in his mind

Do you know who you are?

I begin to speak
but the words get caught because
I can't seem to remember that either.
At last I reply,
I am me.
The monkey's drooping lips seem to smirk

That's correct, but tell me girl, what is "me"?

The Look Alike

Hello, I am your look alike
Your banana loving look alike.
you place your hand ontop of mine,
You walk on two legs, I'll walk right behind.
~ ~
Hello, I am your look alike.
Your swinging climbing look alike.
Your eyes are wise, and loving, brave.
And if you look I reflect the same.
~ ~
Hello, I am your look alike.
Your grooming grining look alike.
And since the dawn of evolution began,
I've been standing in the shadow of man.

Inspired by 'In the Shadow of Man' By Jane Goodall.
