Humans are so adaptable
and they have
the capability of speech
that declares as much.
But all species are adaptable
and have some form of speech.
What singles out humans
is the need to state,
through their vaulted powers of speech,
their undeniable superiority
to all other species.
This is what some psychologists call
"an indelible sign of an inferiority complex."
Consider the rush hour commuter
whose car is moving
less than one mile an hour
then looks up to a sky
full of birds flying free-form
with no bottle-necked
lanes of flight:
Ask that bottle-necked commuter
which is the superior species.
The commuter would ultimately say
"But has any bird ever created
a printing press or a computer?"
The answer is no bird has ever had
a need to invent such things.
