Not human

orchidee

Anyone human on 'ere?

There can't be

For the time it takes to be verified

 

C'mon now, it's a cover-up

Since when were any poets human?!

You might be, Oh, I dunno

Half human, half guinea pig - like I am

Or half human, half fish - a mermaid maybe

Or one of those creatures

Halfman, half horse - a centaur

 

Tell me no porkies nw

Are ya really human?! LOL.

    A sphinx Orchi only a third human with head of a person, body of a lion and wings of an eagle treacherous and merciless, some say that my head looks like a woman but they are jealous. A fun read.

    • orchidee

      • sorenbarrett

          Until we touch noses quite literally, how shall I prove aught? So my best friend is on this site because I kept recommending it, and she and I know each other face to face. I'll give the rest of you, as ever, the benefit of the doubt and let you prove me wrong, if you must. Now, do you want a meow or a woof?

          • orchidee

            Thank you CM. Is your friend human too?! lol.

            • Cheeky Missy

                Orchi, this gave me a proper laugh, my friend, as always. You’re words wink with a kind of humor that still leaves space for a deeper question. Who gets to claim “human,” anyway? Or maybe we’re all just beautifully spliced beasts. 😂🌹👏 I happen to know that Popeye would have commented too, but he found himself preoccupied! How? Don't answer that! 🤣

                • orchidee

                  Thank you T. lol. We cannot enter into answers to questions about Popeye's preoccupation. lol.

                  • Tristan Robert Lange

                    That's right! Whew. Better watch out for me. 🤣

                    We were there at the beginning Orchi and have seen the dinosaurs, we were different from them so we called ourselves human.

                    • orchidee

                      Ahh, yes, that explains it, thank you Gold. lol.
