Selective Breeding for a Better Future
The loudest and the proudest are the words that are heard
The words don't even matter, no matter how absurd
Sometimes the voice of choice for the masses and herds
Moves through the teeth of a wolf from the brain of a bird
Growling to overpower their prey
Forcing others to do what they say
Lifestyle of "my way or the highway"
Day after day after tiresome day....
But haven't we all finally had enough?
Can we tell the alpha males to all shut up?
So we can treat each other with respect and love?
And make our conversations into something we can trust?
Without childish accusations and demands for blood?
