Analysis of Mother Of All
A continent filled with vitality
reproduction overload fighting mortality
mysterious places to look at on my map
problem solving solutions thinking cap
starvation feeding them rice
sufficiently surviving suffice
different continent, born on the better half
we can afford to, but they don't much laugh
concerned about waking next days
life as a reality not as a phase
daily living struggles persist
meager rations mouthful subsist
caught in daily problems forgotten humanity
we think our lives are, but theirs are insanity
feeling empathy for, not so much so
real time 3rd world living ages ago
enough with our own daily dealings
current humanity without any feelings
possible visit for future plans
visiting their tribes and their clans
