We live in a world,
where one species is best,
and everything in it,
is put to a test.

A test of survival,
a test of your wit,
a test of strength,
a test of the fit.

And this species that sits,
on top of a throne,
held by highest regards,
is just scared to be alone.

This species knows that,
if they don't stick together,
they just might not,
last forever.

And that of all things,
is what scares them the most,
so when they're left alone,
they become engrossed.

Engrossed with power,
Engrossed with wealth,
but the saddest of all is,
Engrossed with themself.

The test is too much,
for this species to bear,
and not all of them,
truly seem to care.

No, they all care for themselves,
they say they're civilized,
they say they're fair,
but people are not, I've realized.

A/N: I always seem to write better poems when I'm having a rough time with people. Oh well, I've learned I don't need them and I don't really care. Any who, I hope you liked this poem :)
