linnaeus said i was of the breast,
mammal,
others said
homunculus being of man,
i am structure labels and description
hominid not pongid,
erect bipedal classified and arranged
my own name of inconsequence
i am myself living with fossil ancestors,
last of a kind,
pan troglodytes and pan paniscus
my shadow shape and form,
pan feeder and fertility
of these as much as well
not so much as a deity
but origin being
vessel of twenty three chromosomes
and passion to extend the lineage,
being morphologically comparable
to those of saggital crest,
linnaeus believed in sex and the line
as with his botanica
sexual with bridal beds
as perfumed and scented as passion be
now a dancing self deity
procreation and self extension,
finding the mate
passion raw astounding the stars
grunts of elemental exhaustion
a galaxy of cellular construction
swirl compete and fertilize,
i am mammal
feeder of the breast natures nurturer
and wonder of flesh
