Survival
May 24, 2012
Our basic instincts, a centered around it
We would do anything for it
We have ran, fought, and killed for it
We have a small piece in our brain solely for it
For animals it is their only purpose
They are on the earth to simply survive…
They kill and eat, each other
Fight for scarce food
Eat their young if they need to
On a two headed snake
The heads will fight each other for food
It doesn’t matter who wins
As long as they don’t kill themselves
They share their digestive system,
But they don’t know that
There is no limit
To what any living creature on this planet
Will do for survival
A person will kill like an animal
And an animal will fight anything for food
Even itself…
