Am I Any Better

Am i any better one of millions who eat meat Than the creatures that others kill for me to eat Since like them i was born to life for to die This is a fact of Nature and fact does not lie When i look at life in this way it occurs to me That i am not as important as i make myself out to be Billions believe in life after bodily death but without concrete evidence for to show They are believing in something on which they do not know And i am one of the more cynical who believe life ends in bodily death That we never again live when of air we draw our final breath Like all other life forms for me a last night and day And the longest lived human life in time a short stay And i a mere mortal born to die eventually No less a mortal than the creatures seen as inferior to me.
