House of Thade
A poem
Thade, general of chimps
leader of apes
captured humans
not a primate for wimps
his house has slaves
they cook, clean and
do his bidding
when he captured me
I said "you got to be kidding"
I am an anthropologist
with a Ph.d
you are a simian
just like me
we share DNA
and are excellent
tool users
he growled at me
and stated I was
a loser
so now I live and
work in the House
of Thade
servant to the master
I am his maid
