Space Monkeys

The human brain/mind has evolved to be very creative/innovative. It also can be very delusional. Throughout history, delusional minds have caused untold misery, pain and death. The question is, when are we going to grow up and leave our delusions behind?

 Space Monkeys


Space monkeys have invaded,
the inner nuclear nanofear,
and while we can't see them,
we know that they're here.

Some people have channeled them,
from their comic cosmic stratosphere.
Others from dimensions so close,
yet so near their front is their rear.

On flat earth principles they declare,
we have so much to unknow and fear.
"They" are out to get us,
can't you feel "them" and hear?

"They" come from the future,
the past or next year.
"They" must be destroyed,
let's have another round of beer.

TV tells us there are 12 of them.
Launching a virus to do us in.
We've got fine candidates to lead,
ours will carpet bomb theirs,
make them so bloody bleed.

Will put up a wall high and strong,
that even time jumpers can't surpass,
cuz they just can't get along.

Got all the solutions,
footballing our brains.
Space monkeys are winning,
by rearranging our genes.

So if you see space monkeys,
and are bursting at the seams,
count me out, home buddy,
not in your wildest dreams.

Interesting poem, Ron. The contents sound very similar to Gremlins. As a newly certified coac, one of the techniques we learned is coaching to the Gremlins, which are those inner voices in our heads that spew doubt and low self esteem. Love the poem. la Shawn

Humor that bites! Sounds like the myth of body snatchers only this time it's monkeys taking over.

Based on what I'm seeing and hearing from our so called 'leaders' who want to be President, I'd say Never.

Perhaps a Gersch Device for teleportation of the little buggers...a Random Perk Bottle your reward to stave off future trouble, as long as you save the Perk-a-Cola.
Very enjoyable.
thanks,

The Space Monkeys beat us this afternoon Scotland 9 Spacemonkey's 15
The English will be offended at this statement of course but as the game was live in Space where one English supporter was thrilled, all I can say is the space bit was right.

How synergistic our pattern of thought this morning. I just explored a similar consideration and couldn't agree more with your conclusive position. As I continually find, for a species with so much choice (and obviously, I'm not including the inequality argument re: economics) many do themselves such an injustice allowing our media to govern their free thinking minds.

I dated a girl once, who taught science in middle school, and did not know the sun was a star or much basic science, yet she had to teach the subject as they had no one else to do it. Bless her heart she tried though. It was about the last time of ole Comet Halley's visit, I think 1986. We need more people in science fields teaching science classes but it will never happen due to various reasons, mostly budget. She got the ok to let me give guest talks about the solar system and I loved the exchange with the kids. Dan

The Wholly Book of Genesis by Jay Dubya

The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
