The Gold Rules
Seems these days the gold
in the golden rule
has been taken for granted,
dulled by dust;
its spirit and intent for one
to be kind to others
have apparently turned,
dissolved into rust;
verily, the rule now is he
who has the gold rules,
he is mighty who has the wealth
he can trust,
doing unto others whatever good
he wants done
to him in return as something
fitting and just;
and doing unto them first before
they do it unto him
seems to have become
a survival must!
