The human wit is far superior
To that of single-celled bacteria.
E coli sealed inside a jar
Is stupider than us by far.
Why, they will guzzle all their food,
While all the time they just extrude
Their waste around their living space;
Growing in number at such a pace.
No thought for the future, unable to plan,
They consume their resources as fast as they can.
Then, as pollutants continue to rise,
They guarantee their own demise.
And, with a final brief hurrah,
They die inside their own sealed jar.
Lucky, for us, our wit is superior
To that of those single-celled bacteria.
