Inhumane Humans

You think we are all dumb animals
That could not be less true
We know what is going on with you
We watch what you do to each other
We listen to what you say
You all hate each other
Working out new ways to kill
Yes, we may fight but we rarely kill
Someone always runs away
You are supposed to be the alpha species
But you are really just an embarrassment
No longer human
No longer humane
So please grow up and behave yourself
Before the future decides for you
