Humankind Orphaned

Undeniably we remain one of nature's works 
in progress, the draft plan having undergone 
many spontaneous alterations from primordial
times to the present and look, we are still
evolving. Nature has patience and she does 
not think in terms of her creatures' lifespans 
for in the vast time and space that she has 
dominion over we are but the briefest of 
afterthoughts.Who knows, really? She might 
even in that brief focus on humankind's
complex blueprint, have envisaged a tame
cooperative spirit somewhat like a colony
of bees or of ants working studiously together 
for the common weal, and indeed her humans
have themselves on occasion expressed such
admirable intentions of emulating those far 
lesser creatures. Hers is a busy agenda however
and such details must inevitably escape her 
notice as she turns attention to the much larger 
order of orchestrating fascinating events 
in her universe as a whole, only occasionally
returning to the minutiae of which humans
are but one example. And having turned that
attention upon that agonizing evolution might
have muttered a plague on that disorderly house.
