Who
Who wants to be the last mammal on the earth
the last un-guineade pig still capable of giving birth
who wants to be the last bug to survive and breathe
the ultimate being who still feels enough to grieve
Who wants to join the solitary jail of don't do it
be the only human who does not contain alien fluid
who is fearless enough and sure enough to know
if the world will end , of if the world will grow
Who braves it these days who loses their nerve
Scientists, Mystics, which will flatten the curve
Them with their needles, and us with our Faith
will we explode like red jam, or open the Gate
Who gives a dam and who doesn't give a care
do we hold our breath or do we take in air
who will be humanoid, and who will be toyed
was it an asteroid, that we could not avoid ?
Who wants to be the last mammal , WHO?
Who wants to live forever, WHO ?
