Who was a hero then?
One who survived 
On scraps of hours
Left to him?
Or one whose time
Was his own,
And how he'd die
Was a decision he could take
In his spare time?
 
I ask myself these questions
Each time I'm face to face
With a know-all investigator
Spreading her verities
Like rose petals
Before a happy couple.
 
I always say to her:
Heroes were they
Who stayed alive 
Against all odds;
Not those who died
Because they chose to.
