let’s connect to the forest,
instead of just playing out our old chimpiness.

let’s abolish honor and honorhood,
for it is the chimp’s status game,
a duel of micro-monarchs,
a zero-sum phantom.

let’s touch the leaves of our own souls,
and know ourselves as ecosystems,
not empires.

let’s be catalysts, not combatants,
and learn a new reaction;
where connection sparks creation,
and no one must lose for someone to win.

let’s forget the trailer;
let’s inhabit the whole film.
