Are humans inherently evil? Does it go right to the core? Do we always need to prove ourselves? Do we need to settle the score? I watched a documentary With people doing experiments On other people just like them Callous with their detriments The lower class The prisoners The foreigners By practitioners And now we have this information Torture, surgery, chemical weaponry Some classified, some out to view Is it their duty of citizenry To share that information with me? To tell me how and when and why To share results of tests gone by? Do I even want to know? Do not let them die in vain Maybe I should share the pain (maybe you should share it too) To learn To see And NOT to do
Although there are horrors and abominations of human behaviors, what has been done cannot be undone. As a society I hope we can learn from past (and current) human experimentation so that the lives are not lost in vain. The information that was garnered in unimaginable ways is here, it exists, it is now ours as a collective history. To not use it seems to be an abuse of it.
