Sock Monkey Blues

It was not metaphorically that
we decided to stand upright
leave the trees
to become grounded.

It was only evolution.

We are now more hairless
less careful.
We pretend it was an upward step
to become distracted from
our blood and future children.

Pretend that thinking in words and
speaking in sentences,
opens new doors

it put up new walls.

New ways to deceive ourselves;
new ways to mislead our others;
and this
it what we call
evolution.
