Rules are made and set to function
as their roleplay trumps yours,
lest the game be of election,
A-Plus, winner of wars.
Won by words avoids dysfunction,
body ails naught mind ills,
democracy changed our nation,
daughters, sons--still kills.
Tyranny wins o'er weaker minds
let the bonnet be free ...,
stung 'said, creator of mankind's,
--they left ... slides down that tree.
Evil knows evil, knows their own,
that tree's a free-for-all.
Evil don't overcome good ... sewn
Good overcome evil.
Once 'ere the Eagle flew its course,
turned bee caught and stung 'um,
bitter herbs--better duck or borsch,
--keep loved ones safe at home.
