Poetry Response to "Gentleman Your Verdict"

The Justified Murder
by Noah Kim

Stranded in the middle of nowhere
Are 20 people
With very little air
All so fearful

But only five can survive
And decision has to be made
people with wives
Are chosen to be spared

Many innocent people were sacrificed
But this was only done for greater good
Everyone would have died
If nobody was killed

Though this might seem immoral
This was the right decision
Many people were saved
From uttermost sorrow
