Great Apes

The Hominidae (), whose members are known as the great apes or hominids (), are a taxonomic family of primates that includes eight extant species in four genera: Pongo (the Bornean, Sumatran and Tapanuli orangutan); Gorilla (the eastern and western gorilla); Pan (the chimpanzee and the bonobo); and Homo, of which only modern humans (Homo sapiens) remain.Several revisions in classifying the great apes have caused the use of the term hominid to vary over time.

The old familiar weight in the chest
The knees creak and the bones compress
Locked myself in my room again
Buried in a coffin bed to mend
With a mind set on self-mutiny
There's no pity or pill for remedy
The moods swing like a pendulum
A moment's peak pulled back to plunge

Don't lie and tell me

Another sleepless night
Sun cuts through the curtain like a knife
The clamor in the lobes never quits
The valley fog in me never lifts

Don't lie and tell me
I'll be fine... 

Nothing you can say will make me feel good enough

These days are the pages I don't want to read
Just turn me to the good parts that will never be
A cruel author's character - penned for tragedy
Just turn me to the good parts that will never be

On day three I was forced from quarantine
By a friend's attempt to kindle self-esteem
Coffee and smokes at River Park
With her hand on mine she begged: "don't you fall apart"

Just lie and tell me
I'll be fine

Maybe something you could say will make me feel good enough

These days are the pages I don't want to read
Just turn me to the good parts that will never be
A cruel author's character - penned for tragedy
Just turn me to the good parts that will never be
