Human Animal

Renate Fekete 1945 (Poszon)



The hyper-vented
pseudo- intellectuals
sit on their backsides
in institutions

Peeping out at reality
from their hot- houses
full of irregularities
inundated with weird ideas

at the gentle people
who just need to live
despairing for them
at such crazed irregularities

Life has died
feeling diminished
was I hungry yesterday
did I sleep last night

Go to work to forget
designed by the weirdos
full of irregularities
in their hot houses

Passing by
wondering at
was that a human toe
Big Brother playing too!
