Would You? Poem by soren Barrett

If you were able to make people happy by lying, should you?
If you were able to save the old and sick by destroying the world economy, should you?
If you were able to bring world peace by taking away freedom, should you?
If you were able to slit the throat of an infant Hitler, could you?
If you were able to save two million soldiers by bombing a million civilians, could you?
If you were able to prevent the birth of Judas by killing his pregnant mother, could you?
If you were able to stop future war through genocide, would you?
If you were able to make all people immortal by torturing to death an innocent child, would you?
If by being evil you were able to prevent evil, should you? Could you? Would you?
