Day 9 – This Is Not Satire; It Is A Factual Account Of Prehistoric Times

The year is 2020 BC

The cavemen huddle
Waiting for a sign from
Their leader to leave

He is their leader 
Because of his beautiful 
Golden hair, both wispy and
Lustrous

Because he speaks the loudest and 
With the most surety they listen
As he says the outside is safe

Leave the caves, just because it’s
The Ice Age doesn’t mean we
Should stay inside

Leave your furs, you won’t need them
They will just weigh you down and
It’s not that cold
Liberate the Arctic!

So the cavemen walk into the snow and ice,
Naked and cold because they listened

The leader pulls their furs around him
And settles down for a warm nap
The fire burning and warmth in his stomach
