Human Nature

A Poem by souldude

Its a little poem about my feelings on the human race

"
Human Nature...

Self Preservation. That is our number one instinct. We care not about others unless it benefits us.

Selfishness. This is our number two instinct. We want what is best for us. Not for others.

Envy. It's in our genetics to be jealous of somebody who has what we want.

Greed. All humans are greedy. Some less than others...but hey, we're all greedy deep down.

Hatred. Ohohoh, this is a good one. We hate what we don't know. We hate unconditionally.

Fear. We fear what we do not have any knowledge of. It's in our genetic build up, we can't control it. Often times it manifests itself as jealousy.

Jealousy. We all feel it. We all hate it. And we all need it to be human.

Love. If you can't love, you aren't human. Everybody loves something, and something loves everybody

Maybe not exactly a poem. But i believe it is an accurate description of humanity. if you disagree, please say so. Not EVERY sing human in existence, but the majority of humans who are mindless machines living life just to die

The mindless organic constructs that know not of love, cannot truly understand humanity. If there is a god love is it's greatest creation and it's greatest sin, for it can bring us immense joy and inexplicable pain.
