Humans Frighten Me
For Sir Bertrand Russell
My next life
I will be an
elephant
Not living on earth
Humans frighten me
Many good lawyers
Plenty liars
And oddly
A few liars on top
Kindling fear
Starting wars
Many trusting folks prey
Pluto is far
Moon all dust
Mars not enough water
I might end up on earth
Elephants have decent lives
Not crazy about money or sex
Not overly sentimental
Robust
Very thick skinned
And massive
Size matters of course
Note:
Soon after JFK assassination Sir Bertrand Russell,
philosopher and historian said” Nowadays America scares Europe”
