Nature, the Egotist

I pray that Nature is no Egotist 
That gets an A plus on a test 
And doesn't study the rest of the term...

Though I don't judge, 
(It's merely I), 
You've been too poor
To not catch my eye...

You're assigned to give life 
For this eternal term, 
And making all perfect's
The rubric you've got, 
But you've failed too many 
To judge judgmental me, 
Because you've born some 
That can't even judge! 

I thought you loved Art
And your every creation...

You forgot to make 
The others hot like me 
(Outside of the days 
That they run in the Sahara)! 

These very words, I can only imagine, 
Are the words thought over the world and water--- 
You're full of yourself 
To slack on them, 
Just because you're proud that you made me.
