It is surely not ordained yet
the formula can be recognized
in distinguishing the fundamental
traits between those espousing
liberty and equality and their
contemptuous opposites for whom
sniveling support for the oppressed
speaks to the weakness of purpose
and pride of those countering the
expedience of subduing thoughts of
freedom and democracy. Strength
lies in the blueprint of hard power
ruled with the cold blade of terror
which sees few daring to oppose the
edicts of a tyrant whose armed thugs
enforce strident objectives of conquest.
And while those priding their goal of
peace achieved through diplomacy
naively trust their adversaries to honour
their ideal, they shrink in horror at
the stark evidence their adversaries
flaunt of their success in crushing an
unruly public in bloodshed and fear.
