Unquestionable Integrity

Morality’s general
with an intimidating aura 
and a commanding presence;
this charisma’s description 
is a single lane void of corners
written in a dictionary 
consisting of a single page.
Blamelessness so standardized 
to be empirical
and ruthless to liberalism.
Pragmatism functions but under 
the administration of apt discipline
with no chance for taste 
and appetite to have their says.

Lips when open
are gates for words of absolution.
Yeah and nay 
never exchanging importance
and with an illumination 
so exact and precise
that even distant acquaintances
can join in attestation 
of its attributes
to become a part of a bunch 
of its unsolicited witnesses.

Shoulders of personality
grow high above the heads temple
and character, steeply mountainous 
and impossible for compromise to climb.
Such dart hits same spot 
over and over again on the board;
such skin keeps to its attitude,
never longing to be tanned or bleached
what a wealthy tiny island 
so respected by its surrounding waters!
