Insects are essential for the proper functioning of all ecosystems. If policymakers don’t act now, we’re all in trouble
Investigators with the state department determined the killing was justified, spokesman Peter Tira said Tuesday.
We kill bugs
and mountain lions.
If we leave somethin livin'. . .
don't mean we ain't tryin'
to claim dominion
just like it says
in Genesis.
in Genesis.
Wanna see elephants,
whales, eagles, pandas?
Watch YouTube clips
on your shoreline veranda,
which once was well inland
but with seas rising
a Tennessee seashore
ain't that surprising.
Anyways, even it there's really a problem,
it's good exercise – tryin' to solve 'em.
We are advanced – some say evolved*.
There is no problem that we can not solve
while making us powerful
and even more rich –
even if there's
an occasional glitch,
a minor setback,
like something which
will make us sit back
maybe say, “Sonufabitch!”
Coda:
We, H. Saps., think always,
“We have the answer.”
When, truth to tell,
we are a cancer
metastasizing, moving “ahead”
until at long last everything's dead.
Call it Creation. Or evolution.
We ourselves are THE FINAL SOLUTION.
