The Cockroach Museum

Human beings are displayed beside the dinosaurs
in the museum built by cockroaches...

little did we know when we were around
that they would evolve to become the earth's stewards...

and do a much better job.

Very interesting, Stanfield. I was surprised by what the censors took out...really? I'm thinking almost anything would do a better job than we have.
