The Chimpanzee Asking
I was the first creature
to step on this land of dreams
where man is perceived to be
the master of all.
I believe that am the grand father
or grand mother of man,
but man is better than me
who stay naked forever,
and who have little knowledge
to plan my work in time.
Man is is a rational maximiser,
wise and sharp
unlike me who's ever dull!
I question my self and you;
that who bewitched me?
I have no hope to be like man
who's ever smart in all his plots and work.
