Dilemma

watching the animals
and their gross habits
for, as we all know
they care not who watches
their bathroom taking
or their love-making needs
yes, as I observe the animals
I'm convinced
we, mankind, are rightly superior

uh, as I watch
and judge the habits
of mankind
I'm truly, truly perplexed

Jerry I have to laugh . I know a bitch that care's very much about marking their territory. Peeing on just about everything. In someway out of fear i guess. I am easily amused watching animals, I must admit. (my yard is a mess anyway)

Great play on words. Superior hubristic corrosion is something most are ignorant to.

Rufuz never "seemed" like he wanted to be watched when taking care of his business...but he sure sat and watched me in the bathroom, probably thinking why does HE have to go outside...;-)e

You and me both Jerry, some things
are better not revealed :)
But, the animal kingdom is uninhibited
and has no social standard expected of
them as we do by society.

"Most" of us prefer to behave in an
expected manner and not to reveal
our dirty laundry so to speak.

I really love how you bring these
observations before us, we all
think about them and share the
same perplexedness (new word lol).

Love and Light

And away is the conviction of superiority of mankind
At least animals are uncomplicated and themselves, unaffected and genuine

Briliant as you are so often Jerry
