Animals think
they’re pretty smart
shit on the ground,
see in the dark

but they do see
to not step
in their own shit
so they are smarter than us.

 

***A found poem (the first part), from my spam queue

About Susan L Daniels

I am a firm believer that politics are personal, that faith is expressed through action, and that life is something that must be loved and lived authentically--or why bother with any of it?

    You have the coolest spam. I only get fake rolex and viagra. I suppose there are poems in there for the truly creative mind. Not mine, so far.

    Spam or no spam, I think there is a lot of truth and wisdom in this. 🙂

    I love this! I’m still giggling at the humor and marveling at the truth. It’s a beautiful thing when those two qualities happen together!

    Susan, there is such wisdom in these spamic words. We do step in our own shit so to speak, and end up blaming others for making us shit. 🙂 (language, language, language!)
