Planet of the Apes

Planet Of The Apes Planet of the apes is the now. barbarianism bar keepers hollering last call slurs at old and grey homeless haired suicidal bastards kicking rubbage and greed at the ignorant University students sappy and sarcastic as they all leave at the same time from the clutch of undescribable grip choked on hells liquor, crooked mind sets clash like titans tipsy looking for more. The bus drivers of this town are the most primitive living out the fullest extent to which mundane can be described, stopping and going then stopping again only to start again knowing that another stop is soon. Makes perfect sense why bus drivers are so pissed off sometimes. Champion chimps win provincial championships in the game of a life time. Tree top canapy race with diamond emerald steps and chestnut slick flex tone wire for swinging daringly over the floor of the concrete jungle. The young are fearless and the old fear everything, middle aged monkeys pretend like they dont know whats going on. Still a victory dawns, then sets as we watch the planet of the apes fighting for all the wrong reasons accomplishing so much yet taking away an exponential amount from the soul of the earth. No more winning. No more loosing. Network of bannana eaters slipping on their own peels kind of silly. Monkeys with brief cases and roller skates preparing your taxes recording all your personal information your I.D Your address your "size". Get lost. Let my body live its course, not the course you have subjected it too. Brown monkeys wearing black ties and black shined shoes no more monkey see monkey do.
