Wherein that Rule of Thumb
that I am vanquished, yet among
majority's, the role's succumb
I cast it not ~ the vote's benumb!

Acceptance core, I take the floor
objecting, by what's evermore
the scoundrels 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 the lesson ~ reaching toward!

Composure ~ let us write and pour
our own aggressions ~ for the for!
