Within that rule of thumb
that I am vanquished, yet among
majorities ~ the role's succumb
I cast it not ~ the vote's benumb?

Acceptance core ~ I take the floor
objecting, by what's evermore
the scoundrel's choice, is his rapport
so in my station ~ file encore!

Admonishing by gains restore
the underdog of faith's implore
is greed ~ and tools its own abhor
creating havoc ~ to have more!

The time be right ~ the writer's chore
in all directions ~ leverage store
the composition of truth's score
is now's own lesson ~ reaching for!

Composure ~ let us write and pour
out our aggressions ~ published o'er!
