Anima Pt. 2

For the birds.

living is for the birds.
let the early bird get the worm.
let the hawks eat the doves
and the crows live in their boastful bliss.
while the eagle has all the strength
let the peacocks flaunt in their vanity

Living is for the dogs.
where the bitch's bark is worse then her bite.
where the mutts fight only over bones rarely thrown by the masters
where the mongrels are conditioned to sit, stay and roll over for treats.

Living is for the pigs.
where filth and pleasure are one and the same.
let them eat and gorge all they want
let the swine slip on their shit with those contemptible hoofs.
the porkers will know slaughter comes after self indulgence.

Living is for the rats
where pack rats hoard food and leave nothing to the rest.
let the mice hide away in their fear, and negligence
let the rats betray the rest and intrude on what is not theirs.
where the mouse will own the world.
and pestilence and death will only be a result.

Living is not for me.
