Humanity Suffers From Survival Inadequacies Poem by Terence George Craddock

humanity lives on terra firma
yet in many unique places on planet
earth many unique environments
ecosystems it is obvious humanity
suffers from survival inadequacies
we forced must exercise our adaptability
innovation inventions are forced upon us
survival degrees forged through brain hand eyes

triumph over hostile terrain unlike plants animals
perfectly adapted we are aliens out of place shifted
from humanity created cities towns industrialized
technologies we humans are all aliens when out
of our home environment in some places time periods
we adapt better than in others those people still

retaining survival skills knowledge of regional
ecosystems are survivalist experts who endure
thrive where others swiftly fail separated from our self
made cocoon artificial natural evolved environment homes
