I Wish

If I were not a human beings trust I would not offer to man they are generally ungrateful shapeless as water they are but take shapes of any vessel Worried they avoid danger covetous, they hoard wealth jealous, they destroy others deprived they hate and curse I wish I were not human Once they benefit from you their blood they can offer loyalty will flow as streams their kids can be your heirs I wish I was not human But when gain is remote and danger follows your way their wealth put under threat they help your ruin to rise I wish I was not human
