How human are we?


The Eagle watches for prey 
From his perch above the sea, 
His powers of observation focused 
On what he might catch and eat, 
While we, as humans, 
 Watch for so much more — 
Unless, of course, we don’t. 
 How human are we, if, like the Eagle, 
We only watch in hopes of turning 
Each situation to our own advantage?
