Looked at when sober in the frigid light of day
all the requirements of normalcy are met.
You seem to be a proper human in your way
with all expected parts, the colour of brunet.
It dawned on me while studying in gross anatomy
that similarities gave comfort to a roving eye,
down from the pectorals the picture of a chimpanzee
yet folks will see a need to double take and even sigh.
Twas Shaw who stated crisply that there is no difference
between two-legged birds, it's wishful fantasy.
And scholars have described the law of diffidence
with beady eyes while spitting on the referee.
I am a rebel, yet I trust established laws
all men are equal under God, yet they have lust
it is the afterthought, the one that filled the pause
God made an error when he sentenced flesh to dust.
There is no need to enter into a debate
it must be clear to all that science must have rules,
suffice that she who's been ordained to be my mate
has been created with a special set of tools.
