PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Speed, strength, stealth, and just about anything else

is lacked by the most dominant species of all

for mind is above matter

and matter is created by mind



no horns, tusks, or claws, a minimal defence

but what we have is intelligence

we don't fight alone

our help is brought

we dominate because we have thought



we can change the playing field in our favour

make it easy to eat with minimal labour

our prey grow in our farms, not knowing the wild

until their death, no freedom will be acquired



Like bacteria we spread

deflower the lands

we build our civilizations

leave our instinct in the sands



But when will it end

will we see ourselves fall

when its our turn to defend

will our people stand tall?

Very little do we not control

but great power resides in those elements

when we have nowhere to run

watch us all disappear without a trace
