Kit Kelen #232 - impelled


232
impelled


humans?
they're the ones in their heads


have a funny way of feeling
body's an inconvenience
without which immortality
would be a matter of course


lie down for the sky
and it moves
it does
no one knows
the big why


that's soul to say
as if the head were holding thought
and time were out of mind
as if the chest took heart


and it does
when we are monkeys
to make more


that's how we're here
a silly sausage slips
never mind a why


trees are to climb
and look out over
grab for banana
buttocks remind me of breasts


hear no
see no
do no too


to loosen a limb
don't give me a why


long before
first fish wish


be amoeba amorphous
all this is ocean
swum about
I must be on my way
