If We Are Not Wise Compassion Will Be Our Demise (A Thought) Poem by soren Barrett

In nature with all its wisdom, that which is weak dies
but as people, this no person sees
As humans we think that compassion is most wise
Though this is true for the individual it's not for the species

Is the value of the group worth more than any one life's demise
or an individual life worth more than the sum total of humanity?
Between the individual and species there must be a compromise
Individual charity balances nature's brutality
