Law

LAW 
Law 
Policeman stopped and ID me 

Teachers of the Law; 
Do not tell me what to do. 
Obey the Law yourself, before 
you can tell me to. 
I do not teach to break the Law. 
Or tell anyone to obey it. 
The Golden Rule Is Law enough. 
If anyone can do it. 
People are forgiven, 
Jesus Christ has done that. 
It does matter to him, 
What you do with that. 
We are different creatures; 
I wear no party hat. 
My woman does not love me.
