Lawbreaker
Every law he ever saw,
He broke.
Every rule they ever made,
He treated as a joke.
From criminal to civil code,
No matter where he went,
He seemed to think that every code
Was made for him to circumvent.
He perjured and extorted,
And contorted legal facts.
And, just to spite the IRS,
He cheated on his income tax.
Ordinances were his to break,
At every whim and notion.
He even did his best to break
Sir Isaac Newton's laws of motion.
Contempt, he showed for every rule,
By laughing in its face.
He broke the law of gravity,
And vanished into outer space.
