The key characteristic Of our species Is that we have the most insatiable appetite, And we will eat until we die. We all amount to More or less the same. Ask me how much Of a **** I give about Alexander the Great. A human is the punchline To a joke told billions of times over By a universe that laughs Every time we think we aren’t enough. In a world so grim, We need a jester, Now more than ever. So laugh yourself to the stars.
