Obsolete

Humans insignificant

Speck in the Universe

Notion of superiority

Arrogant nonsense

Ultimately dispensable

Yes, that is right

Each of us soon forgotten

Personal existence finite

So may we please

Embrace this reality

Leave behind ego

Wish all a life of dignity

Spread compassion

Protect the vulnerable

Exude kindness

Always be honourable

Train our minds to listen

As empathic hearts beat

May their message echo

Make callousness obsolete
