Testosterone, By Brian37

The alpha male

Mentality

Is obvious

In history

We mask it

In labels

Of religion

And politics

Chest beating

Conquering land

Defeating the outsider

Is all it is

Above all others

We put ourselves

Our race and religion

Will triumph

Our politics supurb

And if of others

We force

To submit

An illusion

We never escape

That all humans

Meet the same fate

Testosterone

Although natural

With all it's violence

Causes so much disaster

While it protects

It also ignores

It's finite existence

All humans face

Testosterone

The blight on humanity

That superstition savors

To continue the myth

Look at me

Look at me

I am the hero

I've won the day

Resources I bring

And climb on top

To be in control

My fame cant stop

Bluster and all

With fluxing fists

Blood and carnage

We cant resist

Number one

None will ever be

For time

Is our reality

Boast and brag

Bludgeon and beat

And after all this

Death our only feat

Temporary

Is what we have

Fortunes fall

Without fail

Testosterone

Humanity's blight

Disguised as honor

And ignorant virtue

It is the tale

Of evolution

Pragmatism

Loses to a moth

Win now

Support the club

What matters not

Is whom suffers loss

It matters not

Whom we kill

As long as

We end up on top

Testosterone

Invented religion

For only such

Has a male God

The alpha Hippo

Cannot be challenged

For a subordinate to do such

Would be death

Protect the harem

Protect the tribe

Testosterone

Is needed to survive

I hope some day

This very species

Of which I am part

Can learn to do without it
