Like how the female proboscis monkeys, (Whom I saw in action last week)
Fancy the male with the longest nose,
The bigger the nose, the higher its sex appeal.
Or how emperor penguins are all for body positivity and monogamy,
Picking their one true love
Based on who's got the most excess weight.
So there's more to love and cuddle with!
Blue sharks, on the other hand -
Nature's living example of violent love.
The teethy mate bite their love interests,
And the love bites win them the thick-skinned females.
Hermaphroditic land snails and slugs
Pierce their partners with sharp love darts,
Tentacles touching, the path of tough love begins
In the animal kingdom, all's fair in love and war.
The Birds of Paradise are of a different league,
They make loving fun and throw dance parties,
The male manages to woo their female partner quite easily,
Flaunting his colourful plume, and busting his best moves.
Then there's the asexuals, the Immaculate Conceptionists,
The sawfish, komodo dragon, goblin spiders of the world -
All self sufficient and self pleasers,
Birthing whenever they feel the need.
There's much to be learnt from the creatures of the skies, lands and seas,
This poem was one such bizarre opportunity.
