Jurisprudential Musing

As for the law and I, we shall prevail! (ode to the Pantheon)

It is a misconception,
That what we contrive,
Will eventually fall into decay,
Disrepute, or strife.

To forego such a conclusion,
One must depend,
Upon a character,
Not kept on a stipend.

Fields and lilacs,
Doth he not gambol,
The drudgery of life,
Does he make his singular atoll.

For grave is his undertaking,
His measure cup large,
To keep and to preserve,
Is what he desires.

The manner, one might ask,
Of fulfilling such a task,
Is both contentious,
And at times, bourgeois.

Verbosity may be,
His one unravelling,
But even then,
You (may) see,
It's open to reading!

So throw open your doors,
And bid him welcome,
For he is here,
To protect hearth and home.

A word of caution,
Though one must note,
He was a guise under,
which even Hitler commanded.

[Note for the slow: The reference to Hitler states the fact that Hitler's party was a democratically elected party. Hence, their 'laws' (if one can even mention both in the same breath) were procedurally correct, but morally bankrupt. Such rules, to this writer, are fallacies and nonsense of the highest order. They would be valid justification for civilian rebellion]
