Domination


Humans are the dominant species

Creating buildings that penetrate skies,

And having every artificial and natural luxury

From this, our evils arise…

Entitlement

Selfishness

Disregard

Hate.

We are granted with the means, whether it derives from evolution or creation,

To tackle every affliction and preserve Earth’s bearings

But, we choose to seek more

Striving for the abilities of Gods;

We are omniscient of all things

and choose to be narrow-minded

How can we change the world for the better?

By thinking that we are a part of it and not what controls it.
