The Number One Predator

In the Human World people dying tragically every day
In accidents, famines, wars and terrorists attacks or in some other way
Humans kill far more humans it would seem fair to say
Than any of the leading predators of prey
Yes humans with the superior presence of mind
In mass numbers every year murder their own kind
The supposed war to end all wars ended decades ago
But always to fight there is another foe
And on hindsight it does seem quite sad to recall
That from wars of the past we have not learned at all
War and it's dead heroes the patriots celebrate
But every war it does seem a new war does create
The most violent and dangerous when all is said and done
Of the World's great predators humans are number one.
