what is humanity
why are we born
to live to die
what does humanity create
in beauty in wonder in perpetuity
beautiful worlds exist some still extant in nature
nature often devastated by the hand of humanity
does humanity honour protect beautified natural diversity
humanity erects civilizations art seeks face beauty
dark souls rise destroy civilizations art humanity
creation destruction cycles continue in perplexity
humanity fails to learn love lessons set symmetry
love sustains nurtures blesses compassionately
humanity will only break love hate cycles
when humanity detests hate wars loves embraces peace
