If peacocks and cuckoos us regale,
If parrots please our heart,
Butterflies-beasts apart,
There's a zoo in all us without fail,
For sure monkeys are we minus tail!

Thanks indeed for liking the limerick. Have you noticed, we often like some limericks without agreeing with what is said?
And yes, 'poem of euphemism', you have given it a right nomenclature.

Certainly we are monkeys minus tails! The animal instincts are there in man. Some refine these instincts. Some never bother to refine themselves and are animals in essence though they live in homes and not in jungles! A beautiful satire!
Thanks indeed, Let 'beautiful' be the satire, But muse is on mankind entire.

certainly man is an animal..................// sometimes it seems to me Charles Robert Darwin was right
Yes, but he talked about progressive evolution, man often proves him wrong with his regressive tendencies.
