What is Life Without Another Life


To be on a stranded island and to pick one thing.

Whall shall you pick? I know I need another life.

To be alone is no fun, and makes life not well

Who will help you survive and help guide you.

Others may say, OH a knife, but not me. 

Their is not much you cannot not make.

A knife like object, a fire, and a shelter

But, indeed if you were stranded on an island you can not make another human.

Meals and shelter are nice to have, but not alone

You need another life to share the meals with or the shelter with or else... 

The dark comes creeping in, but no one to comfort you ---

Because you chose the knife, not the life.
