Intelligent Humans From Apes

That statement causes
     amusement in waves of our
       mirth and pomp and stance

Swingers and shakers
    have always hung around
      gals'n watering holes

Yes, we have similarities...some of the apes are more intelligent than some of the humans! A fun write, and a clever one! Thanks for dropping by today. xoxo Robert.
