If you believe This poem is about, a black and white COW in the shower ... You are wrong It's about ; MONKEYS Monkeys in cages Four times four meters both in width and height A sad life They are bored Shouting and screaming all day One big mouth with powerful canines Scratching their buttocks and licking toes Within this monkey cage they get sick They feel insecure and need control Creating their own rules, it's about power The result of the actions is called : Psychological deviants Hominoidea, called human monkeys ... I hope the cow enjoys the shower 22.08.2017 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved - Poem of the Week 27.08.2017 -

- It's about "bullies" ... people and animals have many similarities ... they are bored ... and just make trouble ... have nothing else to do, John - Thank you for your congratulations - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

A light hearted start to what is really a serious comment on confinement. But why should we be surprised that we imprison our nearest relatives, when we do it to our own brothers. Love the way you bring the light hearted back to finish, regards to you, Kevin xx

Excellent write Anne-Lise, very witty; the ego abounds, this oddly reminds of Plato's cave. A big congrats on POTW:-)

I feel really silly right now because I don't get it :( I don't mean that in a rude way, I really don't understand the joke, and it seems like others do! Can you explain it to me? Thanks Anne Lise and I hope you are doing well. Hugs

Hi Anne-Lise, your poetry is always so uplifting, beautiful, and you always brings me smiles, however not only are you a great poet, but you have such a beautiful heart. You keep writing and making people smile, and just ignore the negative few. Hugs!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Anne-Lise, another excellent write from your pen. A serious topic looked at as only you can. The screaming monkeys shall always scream for they are insecure. They can scream on deaf ears. It's me in the shower. Seriously though, a well written poem. May your pen ever run gold. Keep writing your gold and spreading your sunshine. You are a special lady. Going to add this one to my faves. Hugs....Mike. XX

This is a serious topic Anna-Lise but somehow I can't stop giggling. I even mis-read your title as "Homie No Idea". I have a hard time with cages too. Thanks, Dean

Hominoidea have evolved into the monkeys we see today, its always important to evolve both in our minds and our hearts.. anyway, that was a bit of a tangent.. You are right, wild animals only scream when they are insecure.. Or hungry some times..

If you believe my comment is pooh-poohing a cow, a monkey, or a psychological deviant you are wrong. My comment is acknowledging the ingenuity of your write, Anne-Lise. ;-)

Fortunately you have the power of the pen to inform about the monkeys. May the shower wash away their spots.

I'm not sure they can be washed away, Tim...only camouflaged.

Yes, the cow is really getting into that shower, he loves it I believe! But the main point of your write is ever present...the power we human expel can be devastating to not only other animals but to people as well! Such a dominate poem Anne-Lise, I loved the subtle humor as well, it made the piece more fun to read! Thank you for this elaborate poem, Great work my friend!!

Unfortunately a lot of small minded people get so carried away by their' so called power.' I like your analogy here a thing which is comparable to something else in significant respects.A great write as usual Anne-Lise....Maria xxx
