My Crazy Mind On Humans
Animals were saved two by two
Yet humans destroyed
Except for one man and his family.
I like them, animals that is, but humans
I can mostly do without.
One day I heard the sounds of a stringed instrument.
A man playing a guitar.
How beautiful was its vibr a tions.
Spanish Romance as I recall.
I thought, no animal can make such a sound
So why do I like them more?
Then one day I fell into an abyss.
My donkey I cried, help me from this danger, but
he could not.
Then I heard the vibrations of the strings and yelled
Even more.
Yes, this man tied together his strings
and pulled me from the abyss.
Why did you destroy your instrument to save me I asked.
He could not speak for an animal had taken his voice.
So now I like humans, Mostly!
