We are a species
with the ability
for self-directed
evolution.
We can decide
what qualities
are propagated.
We can be educated
not anesthetized by media lies.

We can be better
if we choose to be,
when we choose to be.

We can be
a great collective,
a shining light
that spans the stars,
extolling
the virtues
of creativity,
compassion,
and curiosity.

We can be
the heart
of humanistic priorities
that values
all of humanity
and treasures
this reality.
