Does anything separate man
From the beast
Besides Devil's fire?
Observations suggest the evolutionary man
Has more in common
With a fleeting bee
Pollinating many a flower
Not sticking around for child support
With a pack of wolves
Like a Muslim wife
Walking in the path
Of an alpha male
With a lion
Enjoying the lonesome hunt
Only to fall prey
To a cunning lioness
In the words of Sigmund Freud
It is impossible to overlook the extent
To which civilisation is built upon
A renunciation of instinct
Consciously anyway
