Summary of Laments to Archive 361-B (Earth)

How would you define humans—

those with bittersweet acumen?

You can see it in their science.

"Progress" that fuels nuclear binds

United to propel their crafts,

their hubris brings a final blast.

How would you define humans—

those with bittersweet acumen? 

In our search for universal peace,

across worlds and societies, 

the contradictions in each piece

turn hope into anxiety. 

How … how would you define … humans?
