Humans so easily deceived,
so easily turned against one another,
so easily unfaithful,
so easily broken and torn,
so easily hateful,
so easily greedy,
So easily forgotten,
so easily to regret,
so easily to fear,
so easily to die,
the list goes on.

We're a small species compared to the universe
but as a species we continue to fail.

...We're a species that never learns from their mistakes...

As we continue to stack our faults.

Our troubles continue to build along with our faults.

And when we say "We're only human"
it's an excuse to cover up
...our mistakes...

We say we're not perfect
and we claim that we shouldn't
be perfect because we are
....H U M A N....

And yet we seek for perfection for an ideal.

- As humans we only contradict ourselves-

What is our end goal as a society?
That is what the real question that is to be answered.

One to which has many answers to that is neither
...right nor wrong...

Humans are an ever growing population,
we excel in intellect,
in development of life,
in development of technology,
and in development of research for cures.

But truly a species of stupidity because
even as we excel to be better, we continue
hurt what's important which is the planet that
....we live on called....
