Psalm 2

Grumble. Rumble. Roar! 'til
"Freedom!" we sing.

Laughter
Invades liberty's licentious melody,
Insists justice's inescapability,
Implies royal ascendancy.

Bent knee or broken leg,
All will bow.
Volunteer or conscript?
Greater joy for one--embarassing capitulation for the other.
Oh to be the one and not the other!
