Oh bring it ON, Baby Macaque

We’re tough—we’ve seen this all before.

Sure—curl ALL your paws in at once. Just go right ahead. We can TAKE IT.

Those little nubbular ears? No problem, we can handle that toooo. [stops self while reaching out for a nom]

Oh and the eye capsules? piece of cake. [sound of twig snapping]

  31. Sarah says:

    This picture makes me think of this poem by Stephen Crane:

    In the desert
    I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
    Who, squatting upon the ground,
    Held his heart in his hands,
    And ate of it.
    I said, “Is it good, friend?”
    “It is bitter – bitter”, he answered,
    “But I like it
    Because it is bitter,
    And because it is my heart.”

    I started school in a worn, torn dress that somebody threw out …. I knew the way it felt, to always live in doubt …. (rejected) monkey child! Never meant to be! Monkey child! Born in poverty…..
