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.
