MYCOORDINATES<br />
The SHARP edge of Mt Everest<br />
David Sharp was left to die.<br />
Many saw him.<br />
They didn’t do anything.<br />
Perhaps they could not.<br />
Perhaps it was ‘impossible’ to do anything there.<br />
They continued climbing…<br />
Conquered Mt Everest.<br />
Sir Edmund Hillary is outraged.<br />
He knows what they lost.<br />
But it happens.<br />
Everyday and everywhere.<br />
People are allowed to die.<br />
Who cares?<br />
The ‘ultimate’ is just to be on the top.<br />
Let us climb up and up.<br />
Leaving those who can’t.<br />
Can you?<br />
