The Letter of The Law:

Updated: Nov 20, 2023

What to say, what to do

Scooby Dooby Dooby Doo

Lib Pols, news pundits and

Hollywood alike

Want the world

On their terms

On their terms

Else, in their dislike, 

They destroy 

Else they destroy

The letter of the law 

Is their call

On their terms

On their terms

Else they break the law

On their terms

On their terms

They beat their chests 

Whine and complain

Their behavior revealing 

Unmanliness and disdain

Their peace, poise

And moral courage 

Lost in the void

Lost in the void

They shout for 

Good and harmony

In such a violent, 

hateful way

Running in packs

Rending everything

In their path

The world then suffering 

Calamities and strife

Unsettling, darkening life

Each and every day

Each and every day

Hypocrisy shutting out

Their understanding and light

They become lost and 'sight-less' 

Day and night

Day and night

Churning out 'truth' 

Veiling self-interest and desire

Throwing a blanket of darkness over

They lurk and crawl 

Lashing and cruel

Like a dark-hearted lover

Hating those who oppose

   deserving less

Loving those who dispose 

Their prejudices 

   and biases

   Deserving less

   Deserving less

Not seeing that the

Objects of their scorn

In truth, they themselves adorn

Exposed and embarrassed

Heedless of the

Lessons to be learned

Nobility and Virtue

Held hostage - -

They plot and scheme

Lusting for vengeance

Their lives teeming

With pain and angst

By their hand

By their hand

If but once they would introspect

(Shut the door on their 'intellect')

The disease of ignorance,

Darkness and hate

Would fly away, abate-d . . .

Forever

 

Then earth, planets, stars

Solar-Stellar systems and

Angels celebrate

What to say, what to do

Scooby Dooby Dooby Doo

FYI:  

For one's own well-being, 

you must stop watching the news.
