Teddy Kimathi Poet Free verse

Giant Animals

They walk on Earth with two feet,
two hands, and a highly developed brain.
They are made up of flesh and bones,
yet they see themselves as gods – breathtaking
inventions that beautify and destroy the world
they have designed.
So many times they have tried to search for answers
for their existence in deep space, rather than unlocking
their secrets within their souls – secrets that tell them
who they really are…
