human

i am human
i know this because that is what i have learned
i have learned this because this information was taught
but these days im having to teach myself
which is a pleasure to do
and lately ive had an obsession with words

words are observations that have been defined
observations are done by our senses
they provide us with perspectives
perspective is commonly taught in art
therefor i will learn the art of words
for words are an art of passion

so be patient with me as i express myself in art
for me being me is an art of being human
and words are what we humans feel we know most
so lets look further at what it means to be human

human as a noun is defined as
distinguished from an animal or (in science fiction) an alien
this definition i have learned because someone defined it
defining something is defined as
to state or describe exactly the nature, scope, or meaning of "something"

when searching for the nature of being human
i am presented with ideas that i am a form
when searching for what kind of form i am presented with a man
a man is defined as
an adult person who is male
an adult is
a fully developed person from maturity onward
a person is
a human being
a male is
an animal that produces gametes


wait,
i am human, i have learned this, this means i am distinguished from the animals
i am a form, i have found this to be true, and my form is further defined as a man who is male
yet male refers to an animal, which i am not, unless human is falsely defined

there,
see that?
thats why ill continue to do what im passionate to do
continuing to learn what has been defined, defining what has not
and redefine what needs to be

what needs to be is also something i am passionate to learn
it presents a question of what is honesty and what is truth
in the midst of this abyss i learn by examining you and i
cause thats what needs to be, you and i in "this"

"this" is humanity
humanity means to be humane
humane is defined as
showing evidence of moral and intellectual advancement
evidence i have learned is related to results
results end when humanity ends
humanity will end when we stop being humane
i know this because of what i learned about being a human person
durring the learning about the human person i have also found
A human is a member of a species of bi-pedal primates in the family Hom-in-i-dae (tax-on-o-mic-ally Homo sapiens—Latin: "wise man" or "knowing man"). DNA and fossil evidence indicates that modern humans originated in east Africa about 200,000 years ago.

because i previously was taught what a fossil is i know that this means i will die

so come along with me again another time as i continue to learn for the benefit of man kind
about a world of words that are all to easy not to trip on
but because i am passionate about them i will continue to try to live humanely before i die
