The Civilization of Modern Men
Life is too short to waste time,
And wasting is too big a crime.
So lets save ourselves the bother
By starting to hate each other.
I am entitled to your envy,
You are definitely jealous of me,
You deserve my hatred as well,
I would gladly ring your knell.
Just a handful of years to hate,
So lets begin before its late.
Now that we are confirmed foes,
Lets add to each other's woes.
I will defame you and in lieu
You can devise of things new
To make hell of my life
Which is already a strife.
You can hinder my progress
And help increase my stress.
In return I will definitely try
To make you sob and sigh.
You will always be a priority
Will always choose you over me.
I hope that you would reply in kind
And always keep me in your mind.
I will despise you for anything you do
You can troll me for my goodness too.
You should be blind to my better side
And I will announce the evils you hide.
Our relation would brim with perks
This is how the society works.
If we manage to set the standards high,
I am pretty sure that before we die,
We would become the perfect specimen
Of the civilization of modern men.
