Cain And Abel
Of Genius and Lunacy
Of Life and Love,
this is the primordial soup
from which we are born,
genetic choices are made,
on what you will be,
how long you will live,
often how you will die,
all in the amniotic fluids
of love inserted into life,
even your sanity
is formed in the creases
of your raisin size brain,
the frontal lobe enfolds
bi-polar, and O.C.D.
a level of lunacy often seen
in adolesecents with
no apparent reasons,
older women give birth
to mongloid children,
gentle loving humans
who only get a short time,
Barbara Bush gave birth
to a complete lunatic,
our former commander-in-grief,
what electric synapses
must have short circuited
in his cobwebbed cranium
the day he was born.
Are mass murderers
or any murderer's in general
the result of genetic order,
nature's culling of the herd,
are we born innocent,
or do we come fully loaded
with a blueprint of predestined
behaviors, some brilliant
others sophmoric at best,
Are addictions a flaw
that other healthy brains,
compensate for or do
the addictions themselves
destroy flawless brains,
is love generated by lust at first,
then fondness settling in,
surely cro-magnon man
never took a girl out on a date,
wooing her with mammoth sandwiches,
and fermented gooseberry wine,
so much to yet know and
delight in and yet
we are an ancient people,
living out our lives and love,
amidst the genius
and the lunatics among us.
