Long before space was explored
Monkeys were sent, then were ignored.
Scientists said, "They're lost in space"
but turned out that was not the case.
They traveled deep into the unknown,
reached a dimension within our own.
You may not see them in the air
but rest assured that they are there.
Your flesh removed, your skull will crack
as the monkeys viciously snack
on your face and on your hand,
strewing your guts along the land.
You will be left without a hunch
as to why you're their monkey lunch
All of your friends and family? Snatched.
All of their heads? No longer attached.
The human race evaporated.
Monkeys from space proliferated.
Yet for all of their slaughtering
these cosmic chimps regret,
perhaps centuries evolving
will help them to forget . . .
