Nature-W

Nature is as careless as it is bountiful
The faster the death, the faster is evolution.
A female eats her own fertile eggs,
When she is hungry while laying the eggs.

Gall gnat produce eggs within its body,
When the eggs are hatched within the body
They devour their own parents.
The parents die, the next generation lives.

The sea is a cup of death
And land is a stained alter stone,
We are the fortunate survivors
Living on flotsam and jetsam.

Right or wrong is a human concept.
The nature cares not if we live or die.

If the noun is only of its kind, it is definite noun and it takes article THE.

Nature is a definite noun. I think you know we have two types of nouns- definite and indefinite. In the last line, I have used as a definite noun- the nature as I see it and so there is no question to remove it.
