[Newspoetry] no males, no morality?

Getting along without males...
It can be done, but random variation declines...
Lowering, possibly, species survival...

But, better, as the only species with morality,
Perhaps our species does have a death wish --
Opining upon morality is busy-body business --
Trying to eliminate others so as to favor yourself --
And, the trouble with most morality is fatalities,
Ones it would inflict on others rather than change,
Adapt and learn as a new way of getting along.
