Actus Reus

Roiled, nettled, and stung
 perceived as naught,

Odious feigning, you deny
ostracised, blackballed am I,
A positive ego stroking stimulus
 within your intended dominion
 of autocracy

Matter-of-course is servitude
on the far side of any practical
Observer

Palsied to wretch in
my own mouth would take
precedence over any
collaboration with you

To be in accord with such
 actus reus is detestable,
would make dirty
my spirit
