Severity May Come To Thee
Far-out Liberal
mounts a chair
and leads us
in cheers, ostensibly
for ourselves. Pocket
meetings follow where
dogmas talked over.
Interminably.
Far-out Conservative
bashes us with The Bible.
Those unbloodied still
risk execution for dis-
agreement or timidity.
Under both, posing agree-
ment forestalls grief,
usually. Mistakes made
and followers wasted.
They die for Truth.
