I am not a beast nor man
Don't attempt to comprehend
It will take your whole life span
Even when you've reached the end
You will find there's more to know than you possibly can
Because you are just a man, I you will not comprehend

I am but an entity
Being of another plane
Past your simple sanity
You would have to be insane
To comprehend the extent of my complexity
Beast and man are all made from all the same dust and grain

I am both beast and man
Though I am an entity
I am both because I can
Shocking the simplicity
With which I have the double nature of ev'ry man
You are both a beast and man and so an entity

Nicely written, Rachel.  You are operating in my headspace now, and I can see by this delectable piece that you have been there before.  Great read.

Thanks, Jim. I've been going through a lot of rough stuff lately, and it's got my wheels spinning.
