Homo Sapiens

This animal always has said:

“I’m the greatest thing since sliced bread!”

But now overshoot

Shows a dumb swinish brute

That’s very soon going to drop dead.  

The Food Pyramid

To live, we all must compete 

Against others we cannot not defeat;

As resources deplete,

Some will cheat with deceit

To have enough people to eat.

Impermanence

We evolved. and right from then on,

Bursting with promise and brawn,

We thought we were clever,

We’d live on forever—

But “poof!” just like that, we’ll be gone. 

Ugh

I can’t take much more of the hate

And knowing what’s coming: our fate,

The suffering, lying,

Everyone dying—

There’s not too much longer to wait.
