The Spirits Envied Us

The spirits envied us Because we are humans because we have flesh and blood because we are not hollow because we have a heart because we have feelings because we can fear because we can cry because we can feel pains because we can reproduce because the earth fits us as home the spirits envied us

Yes, the spirits have none of these attributes, we have it all and sometimes abuse it. Such thoughtful words to read.
