Dont hate me because I'm not hungry.

Don't hate me because I'm satisfied

With the greens the Neanderthal's

Grazed on and the mallows the hominids craved.

Dont hate me for studying the ancient ways

Described in cuneiform letters

Of what peaceful existence the hominids livedbefore

Their DNA was disturbed.

Don't hate me for understanding

The ancient prophecies of the Bible ,

For knowing that some have thought to change the times,

For seeing the gold and silver ages gone,

And even the Iron Age past.

Don't hate me for trying to rectify

My corporal body to the fact that 

I am iron, mingled with clay.

I am a devolved species

And must go back

To the diet and lifestyle of the ancient ones.

Before zep tepi,

Before Anasazi, 

Before all,

Except marshes and greens and cruciferous vegetables,

And a few stone pitted fruits

In their season,

And a fish when I can catch one,

And I am satisfied.
