For controlling an eventual
Population explosion as
He killed millions.
Norman Borlaug is blamed
For the Green Revolution as
He might have saved a billion
From starvation.
The famines and plagues
Have eaten up a good number
Of people often. To keep the
Population in check.
And something as simple as
Washing hands with soap
Has doubled life expectancy
Within no time.
Where should we draw the line?
Who should we categorically
Blame for the miseries of
Humankind?
The pandemics, disasters.
Modern medicine and the
Wars that were stopped.
Could we have planned them all?
Should we think at a species
Level at all or leave it to chance
To simply eat, mate, reproduce
Till we're flushed into the
Existential indifference?
Or we should up the game
To blame someone better?
Like the stars, planets or aliens.
The spaceships anyway
Are on their way.
