I wonder,

if the words beneath our skin are said,

Before they even leave the lips.

I wonder if we are more the animal, than we

Ever care to admit,

We are useful to those who can still use us!

The smell of weakness brings out the predator!

Sensing the lack of human strength.

We have sought knowledge of the animal world,

whilst denying the creature.

And who or what is behind this order of life?

What drives unconscious processes?

But that which gave us life to sustain,

Her only consideration

survival!
