Frog At the Top

That 
toad,bloated, 
nose 
in 
the 
air.
What 
thinks 
he 
of 
this 
life?
Position, 
money, 
love, 
hate, 
procreation, 
death?
Then 
are 
we 
like 
the 
animal 
that 
we 
eat
Today 
here, 
tomorrow 
gon, 
forgotten. 
If 
that 
is 
animal-
man, 
transitory,
 why 
does 
he 
think 
so 
much 
of 
self?
I 
wish 
som 
good 
angel 
wil5 
tell 
me
