Octavius Australopithecus
Decided he would take a leak with us
He aimed his big shooter
Hosed down an armed looter
Now relieved ~ his reward superfluous

Mirror Mirror, they're
always claiming 'bout thou.
They pronounce that
you're unfair to them,
because you don't
change anything faces
thou.
You're not the only
one that reflects,
they've forgotten
how water shows
and gleams to what
confronts it. But bother
not, because apparently
the way they make
hates on you is likely
how they enmited it.
Mirror Mirror, sometimes
it takes you an australopithecus
to declare illusions and
ramshackles.
Even though you mimiced
such, it's nineties time of
your brainy obstacles.
Those skeptics to you
will remain as how they
believedout in you.
They spend hundreds
decades but still discover
themselves as how
they left you.
I can remember reputely
the time those with red
ears used to visit *******
and deceit them by giving
them your parts like
mendaciouses.
Your hierarchy is more
further distanced from other inventiouses.
Many definations are synonymize
you with your demeanors.
I venerate you with all my
hearty ardors.

Let Africans colonize Mars first
original humans on planet Earth
came from Africa, were Africans
starting as single cells to primates,
pongids, Australopithecus, *****sapiens
now there is civilized humans all over
Mars is still a dark planet as Africa was
little is known about its nature
nothing is known about its interior
Stone age periods should be triggered
then bronze and iron ages follow
secrets to survive the vagaries of Mars
Africans hold in trust and service
melanin exist in huge deposits in them
Though their technology is dark
and others have advanced things
they are unfit for Mars as homeland
primitive secret African technology
primitive secret African science
are the best tools to climb there
Let the Red Planet be African planet
others should come after the Africans
have metamorphosed and spread
Africans lead the way even from the tail
but others follow from safe distance

People Not Prolific During Neolithic
With some subjects can be able to concur
Then regarding others may not be so sure
For instance human and world development
And why from God all of this had been sent.
For our creation what was it God had in mind
If we did it would be like blind leading the blind
Maybe in the Bible there is much more to obtain
Without and Abel could there have been a Cain?
Of course, at times, we must start to realize
After tries and tries by us may be a surprise
As information grows that we collect and garner
About agricultural activity and life of a farmer.
People were never prolific during Neolithic
Times as well as period which was Paleolithic
Would people prefer to be called Cro-Magnon
Or perhaps Australopithecus and on and on.
Paying a tribute to current events of the day
We are all here still wondering which way
How each of existences eventually arrived
And though all the ages we still survived.
I just woke up at two in the morning after
I had dreamed about writing this poem.
