Mistakes

 

God made mistakes

he made the Platypus

the Gnu

the Roach

his worst blunder of all

Man

 

look at us

only two legs

no fur

no claws

no bite

no roar

we fear for our lives

and fear each other most

 

the most puny of creations

yet we learned to walk upright

speak

think

love

 

come to think of it

that's pretty impressive

consequently

I have changed

my assessment

 

my mistake.

Nice. Relaxed, conversational, unpretentious philosophy poem.
