Odds are I’ll not live
To see the coming of the next species.
This time, conscious breeding
Will produce our descendants.
I suspect speed, agility and strength
Will matter.
Opposable thumbs might be critical,
If tool making is a survival skill.
Our progeny won’t thank us,
But history, or for that matter
Reading, will not be of much concern.
Building tree nests will be the rage.
Social security will not be distributed.
Of course, with a life expectancy of 25 years,
Retirement needs will not be paramount,
And elective surgery will not be available.
