highlyeccentricI cannot change them,
I am told by you people
who apply the rule of leopards
to the two-legged ape
who fancies himself better
than those who go about on four.
Why would I wish to change them,
though they do little to blend
me to the gray walls of my cage?
I am not gifted to ask
myself or others what a spot is
or what a spot is not.
We are given what we have
and left with what we’ve got.
