Alas, Humanity

"Humanity I love you because when you're hard up you pawn your intelligence to buy a drink. " -e.e. cummings




Ah, humanity your intelligence astounds me!

Forever you hold your rank above the swine

For we don't wallow in our own vomit,
Nor do we sleep where we crap

Ahhh yes, you hold a place deep in my heart, humanity
Nothing can change my outlook!

Not the over consumption,
Never to the buffoon parading.

We shall forever remain above the beasts of the Earth!

For we have the intelligence to by a drink with.

    That was cool. I like the word usage a lot in this poem. It's sort of raw. Good job, and Congrats on the Honorable mention!

    I can hear the sarcasm in this piece, and I must say it made me giggle. Bravo Schmeezmar!
