We see ourselves a higher life form
As to dominate the earth and more
To hold dominion over all that is
Even to create fantasies contraire
But in life simplicity can truly be
What complexity will betray so
To the elements of environment
Those that move not to survive
The animals that must bear it out
Are condemned by weakness so
Then to perish in merciless rigor
Not to migrate, nor hibernate
Vegetation that may shrink back
To its very root, or seeds sown
Weary wilted limbs feigning demise
That mimic the departure of others
They are then reincarnated anon
For spring's warmth recalls them
Their spirits born anew unlike men
Soulless forms that return anew
A paradox of life's fated follies
That we learn of, but n'er really see
For simplicity is the form surviving
Complicated by our place here
