The most selfish creature on earth,
The perpetrator, who extracts every pennies worth,
Love is scarce, there is evidence of dearth,
How could I benefit, what’s in it for me, a blooming mirth.
Stress, tension, worries galore,
Human kind, who longs for more,
Never satisfied, seeking some more,
A little more, a little more, until, one is no more.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Who is the most selfish of all, Without doubt, it is mankind,
To the needs of others, who is blind !!

Sadly true. It’s always about “me” and more.
