As an Infection
Is expunged from the body,
By such means is health preserved;
That is nature's way.
Is it not our obligation
To rise above nature
And to cultivate
Rather than eliminate?
How much more fruitful is an acre
When toiled and labored,
Planned meticulously,
Than when left to its own devices?
Only when a stone is squared well
Will it find its place
As part of a greater construct.
Before we cut off a limb,
Perhaps we should treat the wound?
It is fine to cut out a cancer,
Until you see all your problems as cancers.
