Who Determines Human?
What makes difference too very different
To be considered human?
Does one particular type of person
Have only that special numen?
Does the phrase “not like us”
Have to equal “deserve to die?”
Can someone very different
Still basically be like you or I?
Many wars have been fought,
Many millions be killed,
These questions stay unanswered
And our hatreds remain unstilled.
