Lawfare

Proud man; simple, simple fool...
gave up too soon on the golden rule
and devised himself a devious way
to keep other folks from having a say
at what is fair and what is not
in the grand mosaic of human thought,
and that way devised he labeled as law
which too soon stuck in the collective craw
where all needs and creeds had to be deduced
so tribulations could be reduced
and the mix, betwixt, all land and folks
wouldn't come to be seen as cruel jokes,
in the evolution of politics,
from outrage all the way to fiddlesticks!
