Humans Being

who first dreamed it into reality

what kind of person they/she/he

when did the idea first occur

where was the concept first presented

why did anyone else so readily agree

maybe some are born bereft

maybe some have eyes but no view

maybe some are burdened with fear

maybe some have heart but no soul

maybe some only revel in cruelty

humans being human are controllers

humans being human are conquerors

humans being human destroy

humans being human devour

humans being human justify

humans being human are capable

humans being human are community

humans being human respect

humans being human learn

humans being human rise like the sun

looking out from high ground

sweet birdsong all around and wind

beauty of potential whispers still

rhythms of possibility beat like a drum

where will we, humans being, go now?
