Sentient
"Sentient"
They say
they don’t feel
like we do
their thoughts
a mystery
if they think at all
some say
it’s just a reflex
behind the eyes
the sentient confirms
we are stupid imbeciles
no comprehension
of our part in it all,
the grand story
connection;
in disgust
now reasoning,
the logic in us all,
where is the wisdom
in that, the sentient thinks
as a sapient
and turns its back on us
appalled
(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)
