The Code of the Sonnet Man

Now my moral code might be confusing To those who think in terms of good and bad, But I am compelled to go on using My moral code, though it makes others mad. What is right is right, What is wrong is wrong, And everything in between makes sense To the one who composes his own song, So do not bother making yourself tense. I took an oath with my right hand in air, While firmly over my heart was my left, To seal the deal as I boldly declare, "Steal from the rich and keep it for myself." This is just a part of the master plan Of the hero known as The Sonnet Man.
