When Evolution
concocted mankind
she must have been
mad
SO mad
Mad at the planet
for not putting out the garbage?
Mad at god
for mansplaining?
Mad –
she must have been
–
Temporary insanity
drug induced?
Hereditary madness
her genes to blame?
Evolution
must have been
when she cooked up mankind
Survival of the greediest
wrecking of the planet

‘Survival of the greediest’ – I looooove that phrase! And you’re spot on with this ❤
Harsh reality! You got that one, Angela.
Sad, but true. Greed is the only universal thing and therein lies the problem.
Maybe that’s what God was mansplaining. It would figure.
I love your take. We are, indeed, destroying our own way of survival and seem not to care!!
Survival of the greediest…(sigh) (K)
I know…
I love the mix of small unexpected details and big ideas.
Survival of the greediest deserves a “(*mic drop*)” next to it.
