Quatrain of No Compassion - 11916

No Compassion

Must we have compassion for
our fellow man, or may
we remain stone
cold,

Everyone seems to feel they
should be treated nice,
a proposition days
old.

There is little you can't get from
others even if you don't treat
them as they
wish,

It may make others happy to be
treated with compassion,
but you get little
back,

We can carryon just fine, even
though others give us a
whole lot of tainted
flack.
