(More first thought best thought feedback from sitting in the park with a pen)
watching the ducks in the lake
observing older ducks stealing food from young chicks
and a common instinct to share food
at least among their own
ducks seem conservative at times
yet exhibit the instinct to share
Unlike some greedy human ideology based on
gene pool chauvinism competition business
the less common events in the animal kingdom
are captured on film
a mother violently protecting her young
an alpha male taking on another
the extraordinary trumps the usual, the common fact
the anomalies become popularised lies
the loudest rises
the dictator clenches his fist
the cautious sidelined
the thinkers insulted by certainty
only the blind and faithful wave flags
me with the gutter punks, the lowliest of hags
each squark from a chick
like a radar, like a find your friend app
increase in frequency and pitch signals distress
opportunists, and the animal instinct for survival
stealing and deception, a fight for survival
like weasels fighting in a hole
are human no better than animals?
what differentiates the humans from animals?
