life? <br />I’ll give you a bit of my <br />koala-brain wisdom <br />my take on life <br />developed these <br />twenty million years here in <br />Aussie bush before any of you humanity <br />came in boats or ships or planes <br />or whatever: <br />life’s a long sleep <br />and you wake up <br />eat a few eucalypt leaves <br />scratch your back <br />(ah, what’s life if you’ve no time <br />to scratch? <br />and oh, the joys of scratching one’s bump!) <br />and you go back to sleep… <br />that’s life, you miserable, inconvenient humans… <br />and don’t you ever disturb me <br />in my eighteen-hour stretches <br />of stillness and sleep…<br /><br />Raj Arumugam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/koala-philosophy/
