Monkey Business

(First posted on October 30, 2017)

“They rank us against each other, then preach about humanity. They convinced us we descended from apes, that we are all equal in that, we are all animals. In return, we helped them build our cages and set the traps. We allowed ourselves to turn the earth into a zoo. Calling this evolved? But never has a monkey told another one how to act.

Where is the honor of raising generations of puppets? Teaching our children that obedience is strength. Until there is nothing left to tame.

There is no shame in quitting a game that you didn’t know you were playing. But there is a great shame in letting your fellow monkey steel all of your banana’s and then sell them back to you.

Know when its time fold, time to raise, or time to burn the house down.”
