ANTHROPOMORPHISM

If you attribute human traits to other things
You’re an anthropomorphic believer
When from those assertions, falsity springs
You’re an anthropomorphic deceiver

If you are hit by a rock that was thrown
And make the claim it attacked you
You’ve asserted a mind of its’ own
An assertion you know isn’t true

Bugs Bunny, a perfect example
Of an overly morphed rabbit
His walking upright is quite ample
To illustrate an over-morphed habit

When describing a beautiful flower
Peeking up at the sun
You infer it has eye-sighting power
Anthropomorphically, you’re just having fun

Why not leave all earths creatures
Remain just as they are
Without all our human features
They’ll be much better off by far
