An On-Going Debate
If this is what you want
then this is what you get
but what about THE CREATURE
that you wish you could forget
for is IT really just A CREATURE
even if IT cant be seen
for not genetically the same
as a human being?
is IT really a fact
or just to relax your conscience
when you walk through the doors
and rely on tools of science
when the two parts meet
to form a whole
now predestined to grow
IT has a role
IT may not think
IT may not feel
to say IT isnt alive
isnt a tree real?
without external cause
like the needle through your skin
THIS will surely flourish
as ITS life now begins
what can i say
to change your mind
i wont ease your conscience
i wont turn blind eye
THIS LIFE has no choice
THIS LIFE has no say
have IT yourself and ask IT
if you still have the guts on the day
unless proven to me
that there is absolutely no other way
take THIS guilt to your grave
shall my words not make you sway
if you still wish to end THE LIFE
wait for IT to be born
grab IT with your own two hands
and end IT with a knife
