Why are you here What is your importance How were you created Does it feel emotions Is it excited that I’m here He recognizes that I’m living And that I can interact Having something else to interact with I think that makes him happy He’s running From the back of his cage To his wheel And then he returns to the feed That’s all we’re doing Except our idea of a “cage” Is much larger He scratches out of the cage For what looked like a corn nugget I picked it up and gave it to his hands And he took it Sat and ate I just helped that animal It couldn’t reach the nugget And that made him sad Because it’s something he can usually get But when it’s out of his reach His internal cycle missteps Causing him to break down He jumped on the side of the cage Revealing his genitals Shaking them is somewhat of a snooty fashion Does he know what humor is It doesn’t have cognitive thinking It can’t decide for itself Why did it do that For what purpose What is driving this animal to do anything at all What is the significance of its existence How were you made What the hell are you Humor, sadness, joy Can it feel all emotions It’s so basic So simple Does he only feel one emotion One emotion All the time I am such a complex human being I can’t even image a life An existence Where I only have one emotion And that’s what makes us special And that’s what makes us human
