MONKEY IN A MAN SUIT


Here I am
Juxtaposed
Between Meaning
And Insignificance
Marooned
On an Island of nothing
A monkey in a man suit
Falling from the tree of perception
Lost in jungle of relative realities
Here I am
Juxtaposed
Between me and you
and you and me
Searching relentlessly
Forced to exist
By the nature of things
My skeleton, my flesh
My skin, my mind
Dragged screaming into the chaos
Here I am
Juxtaposed
Between life
And death
A fly in a web
Helplessly frantic
Victim to the laws of evolution
Somehow compelled
Driven by survival
To try and break free
Here I am
Juxtaposed
Between chaos
And order
Monkey in a man suit
Shot into space
Passenger of perpetual motion
Weightlessly in tears
As Earth turns silently
Everything falls------------------------into place
