Human
Dark nights and bright blue mornings
My Back against the wall,
Foot on the moon
Arm strong: I'm carrying the world,
The youth taking over!
Lets just hope we don't repeat-
the same mistakes our folks brought to this life,
From fighting for skin color to gender
And Tackling phobias,
Its tough being a human
From individuality; family; clan
And races like we racing toward something!
Call that civilization's game,
The great Olympics...
The torch lit up!
I wonder which nationality will win?
Human beings fighting for everything
Is there anything we don't fight for?
Premature species: O how we need our mother!
Nature and modernization: how we do so much for the other,
Father time: the decaying reality
Uncle Sam: O how he wants to put us back in the story.
Selfie the great lose of self
Snap shots but nothing captured,
Money makes the world go round
But the world never made money!
Humans and machines to
Robots and Androids,
Artificial intelligence: the mechanical system,
Evolution of mankind to androgynous beings,
Eugenics to cosmetics-
Beauty as ideal and knowledge for the elderly,
The formulated world and make up so expensive!
