A World of Oddities
In a world where people claim ancestry to apes,
You could become anything just by saying "I identify as..."

Movies and Music preach the gospel of acceptance—
Let men and monsters live together in peace.
Where man weds Crocs with glee.

Where the alibi for crime
is a stuck up child back in time:
Daddy issues!
A billion dollar excuse
to pay off delirious abuse
What next?
mummy didn't pet me
so it vets my killings
Didn't get a toy as a baby
now, I toy with people for a living.
mindless melanin makes a man
a game for the taking.
just any itch justifies every ill.

with an extra million or two
men can have boobs and bums too
women now sleep into manhood.
hey 'you' give this to 'her'
then an irony of 'them', 'they' and 'me'
transpires right in our neighborhood.

oddities upon oddities
when we shut God out
claiming he's 'dead' or 'not'
so we can live as we ought.
