Animal

Don't call us too good for the name,
Don't call one an animal as an insult,
change that around.
If either better than the other,
we're the lower.
Without the animal in us,
and you know it's there,
we'd be more like a robot,
incapable of reaching our title.

The vast complex of natural selection,
thousands of years deep,
millions of creatures wide.
Connections galore,
none out of the connection,

all of this is programmed in,
there's no way to ignore it.
Every thought,
Every emotion,
Everything.
