A Question of Morality

E-mail Print PDF

How is it an immoral deed can be done?

That answer is different for everyone.

Morality is subjective, so where to begin?

Objective, only if you don’t value your opinion.

 

The first way is to be amorally detached.

To neither define, nor condemn the act.

 

Moral superiority, is for those to be justified.

Claiming that the law or god is on their side.

The path of those harbouring dangerous delusion.

The elusive “greater good,” their mad institution.

 

The third, is to engage the super morality,

Justify for oneself with their able faculties.

To say “if society acts, then why not me?”

Then condemns, why wade through hypocrisy?

 

The last is to commit with wide-eyed intent.

To act, to do, to truly delight in it.

 

This last, is certainly pure evil-

Yet it is the lesser evil-

To the greater good.

 

Mark then, that this pure evil-

Disguised as the greater good-

Is surely the greatest evil.
