Pretentious and Destructive
Human nature is destructive,
But also very instructive.
You learn what you want from it,
You choose the path you wish to knit.
See the destruction around you,
Let that nature never dwell within you.
We are but microbes in a vast universe,
Thinking we move forward while in reverse.
We are specks of life pretending to rule,
Thinking of ourselves as a precious jewel.
Pretentious and destructive is our nature,
Destroying both our present and future.
