“Sonnet 2713 Every monkey thinks toxic masculinity is nobility, every monkey thinks blind faith is divinity, every ape thinks tribalism is divine fury, and brainless loyalty is patriotic duty. Every ape confuses superstition with spirituality, every ape confuses conspiracy with curiosity, every ape confuses fear with reverence, every ape confuses exclusivity with supremacy. Every ape thinks their flag is the flag of god, every ape thinks their land is the land of god, every ape thinks their lingo is the lingo of god, every ape thinks their text is the text of god. Takes a human to feel empty without others, takes a human to feel incomplete when alone. Absolute self-sufficiency is a mental illness, you gotta be extremely selfish to be happy on your own.”
