~ The Brainless… ~ 

☆

Even among animals, there’s

struggle, skirmish and battles

Struggle for survival, for food,

for protection of dominance,

For territory, to attract a mate,

But animals never unleashed bombs,

Never launched missiles,

never destroyed nature,

Never reduced the earth to ashes.

You could say – they’re incapable,

Lacking the intelligence to do so…

But, these brainless learned the

art of building intricate nests,

These ignorant planted seeds

to keep nature green and alive

The dimwits took care of others’ eggs,

Gave life to other species too,

The ignorant faced challenges together,

As a community, they overcame crises.

Listen, you wise ones, the history

of life unambiguously says,

Being half-witted is better

than being sinisterly wicked…!
