Utilitarian Undertaking

By Alice Newcomb   

Its been an ugly umpteen days.
We’re still surviving under UV rays.
What are we supposed to do?
Martyrdom you can’t undo.
Must we kill one to help a few?
And what is fair to help us choose?
Together we can undertake.
It’s all our choice to make.
Win or lose we understand.
We chose not to kill upon demand.
