Play On Evolutionary Ladder

The funky monkey in golden coat
has risen above diseased scapegoat
able to express in diverse form's
able to understand outside the norm
no longer being led as a carnival jester
no longer wounded with sores that fester

The funky monkey has reached the top rung
bellowing his song to be heard to be sung
reaching down showing other's the way
pathway to love where the light of gold stay's
life imprisoned cage door's being opened
criminal's no more are the heart's of awakened

The funky monkey evolve's to resolve
promise of gift awaiting us all
journey has been long in time and space
putting an end to eternal rat race
no longer an experiment
enjoy life how it is meant
Love is no doubt a message heaven sent.........

.....the mental age...intellectual age......
        ~~intelligence by design~~

( just a play on Darwinism )
