If I Were a Monkey With No Stress
I would have monkey arms and ttail
so I would jump from branch to branch
and visit all the trees around
in the city;
Early in the morning,
I would sit in one of them
laughing, chating and
looking down on people
dashing out of their homes,
waiting in lines for taxis or buses,
getting stuck in the traffic long hours
which often occurs;
and in the evening,
rushing out of their offices
crawling across and along the streets
just after they have left
their warm and comfortable seats,
while they are going back home
with unrhythmic steps
as a result of too much stress,
and I would do that with great finesse
