It is a poem that asks you questions
                                              You
                            Who are you compared to what?
                      What are you to be fought?
                            How are you in the midst of this earth?
                      Are you something that is worth?
                              Is there something in you that is benevolent?
                      Or are you all malevolent?
                              Are you true to what you are?
                      Or is it something that you bar and condemn it saying "it is too far?"
                              Is it you the one who is livivng?
                      Or is it true that you are no tbreathing?
                              Do you give what you have to give?
                      If not, then why truly live?
                              So then, who are you compared to what?
                      You need not compare for whom you fought.
                              Against all odds you are who you are.
