Simians Seek Sybaritic Satiation

Simians Seek Sybaritic Satiation

tens of thousands years ago
(a figurative out in left field ball park figure)
Homo Sapiens (or the forebears of said species),
deliberately sought sensate satisfaction

with deliberate zeal
shucking clothes
(perhaps just an animal pelt hiding pubes)
answering (on a private line),

the call of the wild,
not yet verboten feral common weal
way before the identification of venereal
disease (though most likely

germinal forerunner), yet to rank
as demise forecasting deterministic,
fetishistic, hedonistic inviting
     Gonorrhea, Herpes, Syphilis, et cetera to an unveil

ling, then (of course) average life span
of primate predecessors brief, nasty, and short,
thus demise from sexually transmitted disease
unlikely the cause of death,

nor spelled catastrophe that would seal
the fate of mankind unlike the here and now,
when the Apocalypse Israel
aside from conflagration

decimating Rohingya's, Uighur's, Yazidi's,
countless other minority populations
severe distress they feel
plus Middle Eastern countries got a raw deal

subjected to their own variety of slaughter,
which genocide ranks as Syria us injustice
calling for immediate appeals,
injunctions, sanctions humanitarian appeal

against inhumane abominations,
terrorization, violations
rather than passively witness
innocent lives being trumped.

I cracked on the central air-conditioning on Juneteenth 2025...

the first time this summer,
when martyrdom got chucked aside for cold comfort.
