Our very existence is the source of our conceit
we go further and further into space
no life
And we
as the most intelligent of the fortunate
have the audacity to question
having given ourselves the right
and the obligation
While the others believe
or don’t
as a matter of fact
Or
are they unconcerned
as we should be
I’ve seen elephants cry
but do they pray?
