What is the price
of a human's existence
compared to the price
of the species?
Both planet
and species
have more meaning
than you.
Ought I value
my species
more than
my cells?
Am I born
indebted
to my species?
We will have no morality
to speak of
without the survival
of our species.
By technology
our species has come
to a moment of great potential
and greater danger.
Without some control of birth rates
any species
will consume itself
into extinction.
How many wars will it take
before our species realizes
that us and us is always better
than us and them?
The self fades toward oblivion
from the brilliance of a hundred billion
narcissistic copies
of the species human.
