Dangerous Animals

that's a nice face you put on there my dear

humans are dangerous animals

you know this

we must protect each other

from ourselves

or we will protect ourselves

from the other

by any means...

it is only natural

after all,

humans are dangerous animals

we know this

and in a world full of these creatures

if we do not protect the light

the darkness will consume us 

not all seem to know this

that if we cannot act like people

the animal will become us

everyone of us

is already human 

 a dangerous animal

so we must protect the person

from the dangerous animal

how is not always obvious

who is not always clear

Indepth analysis of human mind through poetry. I love this poem too much as a lesson in psychology. Excellent work

Mind is like a monkey

You mean, like a crazy f*****g animal? Yes, the human mind is indeed like that. Some of us are better at tempering the madness though... some of us, are insane and go hog wild like crazed dawgs in the streets.
