INSECTS ARE PESTS

We see them all as pests to be destroyed.       
For they feed upon our food crops galore.       
And invade all our homes by the score.       
They bite and sting and this we can’t avoid 
So poisonous chemicals must be employed.     
Daily we spray these insects more and more      
As our inventive ways come to the fore           
To make their reproduction then fall void.
  
But we are focussing on self-interests    
Thinking that we now can control nature.      
We will rid our world of these wretched pests.  
With clever chemicals we’ll be master. 
And soon bring an end to all those insects      
As we are in command of Earth's future.
