If you were not a human,

You would think the word 'mankind',

Was a very inappropriate description,

Of the one who kills so many,

Just for food or fun or fad,

And causes them such anguish and affliction.

I'm sure you'd think 'mancruel',

Was a far more fitting word,

To describe the one who thinks he has the right,

To harm and hurt all creatures,

Who don't possess his features,
