'' Our Worst Fears ''

Since humans evolved,
Our planet's dissolved,
We cannot take without giving,
With every disaster we are involved,
Our actions are so unforgiving.

Disease we'll cure,
But you can be sure,
Another we'll put in its place,
Destroying ourselves seems to reassure,
It's just the way of the Human Race.

At times we're brave,
Many we'll save,
But to destroy we have no hesitation,
How many have we placed in an early grave?
We thrive on complete devastation.

Drugs to heal,
Ideas we'll steal,
Then use them to kill and maim,
We love to watch our enemies squeal,
Then refuse to accept any blame.

Robbing each other,
Be it sister or brother,
Is the opposite of the way we should be,
Intelligence at times we seem to smother,
Though the thieves would never agree.

Weapons that destroy,
We invent then deploy,
From killing billions we refuse to refrain,
The taking of life we tend to enjoy,
What the hell is inside that brain?

If we were to face,
An alien race,
More advanced by millions of years,
Our evolution shows we'll be well off the pace,
Their brutality will confirm,
