I suppose we’re a failed experiment,
the human being
Perhaps, when they invented us,
they had something better in mind

But here we are
20% real
80% invention
Measured by what we reveal
And what we prefer not to mention

I'd guess less than 5% real.

I was toying with ten, but you're probably right.

The conclusion of failure can only be reached when something is ended.  We are all still here so the experiment must still be ongoing and therefore cannot be a failure; yet.  (Must find darkened room to lie down in after that.)
