Stand Up For the Rights

Stand up for the human rights
in them are true godly lights
without them there is no right whatsoever
but fear, anxiety and satanic fever
in them are roots of wisdom forever

these days are times of trouble
don't panic and rubble
into tempest strays of cowards
for humans must remain shepherds
this in itself is applaudable

virtuous life is boundless
like an ocean it is endless
blushing is the color of virtue
but vice is as naked as a statue
be good for something trendless
