Escape is the mind's extremity From timid eyes of vulgarity Dashing through the shackles of legality Frolicking, dancing, twirling For the crest of susceptibility Even with the hunger of mind's extremity The animal lies with its deep responsibility --To fill the gaps within its community And halt the vapid temerity From the absurdity of one's own homogeneity Are they truly a family? If one's own father hits his lover Aren't we just another culture of impunity?

We the Animals
Escape is the mind's extremity From timid eyes of vulgarity Dashing through the shackles of legality Frolicking, dancing, twirling For the crest of susceptibility Even with the hunger of mind's extremity The animal lies with its deep responsibility --To fill the gaps within its community And halt the vapid temerity From the absurdity of one's own homogeneity Are they truly a family? If one's own father hits his lover Aren't we just another culture of impunity?
