Best Majority Rule Poems


America, Why Did You Stray?
America, why did you stray from the old way.
A constitution put forth, the foundation of our land,
barely recognizable what was originally Jefferson's hand.
Tarnished and smudged by misinterpretation,
overindulgence and greed, to satisfy political,
judicial, and journalistic need.
Once majority rule, now bordering on ridicule,
the law of the land,...

Heaven Is Not a Democracy
Heaven is not a democracy
There is not freedom of speech there
There is not majority rule there
There is not racial purity there
There is not economic inequalities there
What a beautiful place it must be...

Premium Member God Will Get You For That
You talk behind your neighbor's back,
And say things most unkind.
It seems someone who won't do that,
These days is hard to find.

You re-tell things you promised not,
To let any others know;
But if you think it'll serve you well,
You'll tell all that you know.

You bite the hand...

Dystopian Reality

Shattered bottled up dreams
strewn in callous fashion,
litter those Tobacco roads
of man-made poverty
Cancerous amorality
is the accepted dystopian reality
Majority rule by the metal ballot law ... 
second finger got a gun pressed to the jaw
Diablo destiny decree:
Dos digital corrects any uno analog flaw
This warped sensibility
is the venal...

Hard Time With Statistics
Hard Time With Statistics

People had hard time believing latest statistics
Made by morons who must be marvelous mystics
All of the relationships with everything is inverted
What is disturbing is distorted and perverted.

Some whose census was taken were way over 65
And was said they had new born babies...

Strong Medicine
In the house a monster grows.
Dissension seethes unchecked,
this house divided stands alone.

The strongest rule, the rest beaten,  submit,
hopelessly pay homage, for now.
The young, attention is speculative
in hope of increasing dominance.
Strength through numbers, majority rule.

Know those who now rule will again be replaced,
they sulk, awaiting...

Utopia Isn'T Snide
Ask ourself this one Question,
Do you need the Greedy rich to rule your wide world?
Of course not!
With the advent of Computers and Satellites we have  possible
 communications between every family on Earth to 
vote on how the new order should work, 5 billion poor...

Premium Member Dangerous Cowards
There was an earlier time
that came to mind
this day I heard dangerous fears and angers
called cowardice instead,
back 200 years ago
in the United States,
when Northern industrialists,
relying on southern cotton
to mill fabrics
clothing cotton-picking slaves
and other whiter folks,
joined Southern slave-owners
to refer to Abolitionists
as cowards.

Moral cowards
for threatening Orthodox ecopolitical...

The Exception
Just as I finally fully fathomed,
That the exception does indeed prove the rule.
They went and changed the rule, 
And now the exception is no longer the exception.

Now instead of being the exception, I take exception.
When the majority is the minority,
And the minority rules the majority,
The...

Youths, To Vice and To Crime Unknown
They surrendered to Virtue all they had, tears
They gained from society( 'twas all they yearned for) tranquility
They sang songs so serene:-
"Oh, blessed is the shunner of all forms of evil!"
And perched on tower-tops
While the city went out and commenced
Jumping walls topped by sharp-edged-jagged pieces of...

Mailed To Jessie Ventura Part 1
Another way the entities that be, suggested in Jessie's show, is to control, a Society,
through their individual belief systems, i.e, through their freedom of speech.

Say if a Society is solely based in this principal and formed as such by the majority rule
of said created site.

Dirge of the Unborn
DIRGE OF THE UNBORN
The Owl hoots
In the smooth silence of midnight drama,
3 a.m thick darkness
Unrivalled by neither the moon nor stars.
She moans and wail in excruciating pain
Forgetting the envisioned end from the beginning,
Her pain shrouded my pleas from within;
'You can not deliver the goods
When your...

Premium Member Relationships Difficult To Imagine
It's difficult to imagine
a liberal hearing "capitalism"
where a conservative fears too progressively individualistic
ego-investments in "liberalism,"

It may be difficult to imagine
too liberal with win/lose secular commodification
of fragmented life,
choosing majority rule democratic process compromises,
sacrifices of disorganized rabblish losers
rather than a salvific species 
of liberally lavish empathic lovers,

Played...
