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
