Species We





Species We


Human beings

We are 
currently
the dominant
planetary species

Civilized controllers 
of the realm 

We fancy ourselves
as highly evolved

quite rational creatures

but underneath
our pretty garments 

beneath the strut
we convey

Animals are we

soft and pink

fragile creatures
with sophisticated
weaponry

Long removed
from the

jungle primordial


We rapidly evolved 
up
the food chain

Dominating 
with 

high tech gimmickry 

but in reality


deep down
 
we still be


soft and pink


mammal 
animals

Fragile stewards
of an
ailing planet
