Morality or Value

A Poetic Response to"Gentlemen Your verdict"

Oct. 22nd

20 crewmen have been stranded
at the bottom of the sea

Without any rescues.

But they had air
For less than two days.

The brave and faithful Captain,

Falling into endless confusion,

Made a important decision.

He arranges only 5 married men to survive,

 But all the people's life are equal and precious.

The captain makes a right decision.

He considers the most beneficial way
To save more people.

Though he kills 15 innocent crewmen,
They won't blame for his decision.

Is his choice moral,
or immoral?
No one could accomplish the balance
between morality and value.
