Best Homo Poems


Premium Member *****Destructus
Apparently Soup finds the Latin word for ‘Human’ offensive;
about as ‘P.C. gone wrong’ as it’s possible to get. I have had to
include completely superfluous hyphens in order to get the word 
accepted.

*****Not-So-Sapiens
Humanity’s first born child
Sits, wondering what to do
First Africa, then the world, the seven seas
And then space - the final frontier
He’s the first in line for world domination,
But first he’s got to put the competition
To extinction

A lion never apologised,
For being majestic
Nor will a blue whale ever,
For being gigantic,
But for being human however,
I am apologetic
The burden...

*****Erectus

     There was once a *****Erectus

     Who said, “The World did not expect us,

     But for better or worse,

     We came along first,

     Now Sapiens want to connect us.”...

Natures Miracles *****Sapiens Never Measured
Ground trembled
Houses fell, city mangled
Loss and Chaos bull having free run

Many deaths, overnight many born as new orphan  
On Ritchers scale, quake measured by *****Sapien  

Human destroying Nature on big scale 
Natures Tit Tat tale 
Wail trail

Global Warming bleeds   
Mercury soaring day and night 
Nature breached 
Humans shall burn, just...

*****Sapience Sapience
He was born with a bushy round follicle-free head
and walks with two legs, because 
he is a Neanderthal(1) mutant,

for he is a mutational product, 
he is an android(2) not found in the evolutionary tree, 
and that’s why he was so sad; he began to roam the surface 
of the earth, he climbed up the mountains,...

Once again *****Sapience ready is, his superior intelligence to prove

By dropping his " Smart Bombs" on other humans for them to remove

*****Sacer, An Accursed One
Before knowing, he was turned into an invisible man
standing in the middle of a busy street.

Unmistakably, though his image reflected on the glass of the show 
window no passersby noticed his presence or recognized him; 
not even endowed him with the acknowledgement of his being.

All kinds of gestures he made to attract passersby did not...

*****Sapien, Man
He stood erect.
I don't know
if he would have kissed his mate
     or patted his childrens' heads
when he set out from camp
     to procure food.
But they were happy
when he returned provisioned.
I bought him rice and tuna at Wal-Mart.
This is homelessness today....

*****Lupus Homini Est
You will not often find me 
In amongst the fold
Being chased from the pen
Wherein your treasure lies 
I will not clothe myself in sheep
I cannot be but that which I am

lone 
I am wolf

If we are inclined to meat
I will grant what is yours
But choose to hunt me down
And I will eat you alive
I’ll gnaw...

Premium Member Cosmic Scare For the *****Sapiens
COSMIC SCARE FOR THE *****SAPIENS


The shooting star across the span of the night sky
The blazing fiery trail of the burning meteorite
Through the thick atmosphere many can’t fly
Some fall causing craters of damage at impact site.

From the asteroid belt beyond Mars they all surge
Invade the innocent planets with cosmic velocity
In chunks of the solar system...

*****Sapiens Is That Race
*****sapiens is that race
with a very high intelligence;
no, it didn't originate in space,
no, aliens never took residence!

If on the farthest planets there is
a new species, it's quite impossible
they will reach us in a thousands of years,
or less; but for now it's simply unthinkable!

Even science can't prove aliens exist,
human imagination is greatly influenced 
by fiction...

*****Ludens From Within
As a play, 
life moments and experiences,
antithetical to lore and summons.

Visiting the world by smiling and laughing.
All classrooms become living rooms.
Far from censorship, 
the political narrow-minded.
 
A sizeable sanctuary serves as a library,
the school's wings swing.

Jews cling to jewelry,
Moslem clutches the monsoon,
heartfelt and engaged.
 
Bnei Yisrael comes after Bani Israel?
Salam comes after shalom?
*****Ludens dances,
Homo...

Premium Member This Utterly Amazing *****Sapien
Here ye! Here ye! Here ye!

I humbly present this poetic masterpiece in jest!



Four score, minus three hundred and sixty-five days ago

This handsome *****sapien took his first breath

Since that momentous day, the world has never been the same

However most people leave off the 'ien” leaving the phrase “*****sap”

Now that's downright mean and despicable I...
