There one hundred twenty-three living species of monkeys with tails and tail
of these, one hundred twenty-two are covered with hair.

while becoming so erudite
Homo sapiens has remained a naked ape
and buying new and higher motives
not old has lost none of the lowest motives.

and there is no hope that he can shake off quickly
genetic heritage that has accumulated during the evolutionary past.
animal would be a lot less worried and more satisfied if only to face this reality.
