Numb. 967 In All Humility

We contain multitudes of single cells
who are not us, they are themselves.
This raises a question because by and large
it's hard to tell just who's in charge.

Can “free will” be undone by pill?
Is what we hold true garbage and swill?
A toxic concoction laid down over years
of confusion, frustration, and various fears?

How could that be? Are we not supreme?
Are we not the crown of creation?
Has the Universe some other purpose
than showering glory on our selves and nation?

Come, let us celebrate how we are better than all people alive.
Even our ancestors (who were better than theirs) from whom we derive
would not be our peers in the least degree
and, it is clear, you're less than me.
