My Least Favorite

If you were an adorable puppy with no boundaries for affection,

You would be ten times less contemptible.

If you were a graceful garden-eating deer the neighbors couldn’t stand,

You would be a hundred times more tolerable.

If you were a ferocious lion, demanding fear from all who lay eyes on you,

You would be a thousand times more likable.

If you were a revolting spider, poisoning foes with your lethal touch,

You would be a million times more lovable.

 

But you are a human,

The ugliest animal of all.

words cannot describe how stunning this poem is. seriously? i am so jealous right now. This is definitely one of those times when i can only sit here and think, "Damn. I wish i wrote that." Another beautifully crafted feast for the mind!
