Conscientious Insubordination (An Original Poem)

Oppressive , Exploitative , Detached and Drunk ,


Your power games are unjust , all of which I debunk ,


Your rule of law theory is all but a farce ,


The select pursuit of justice , being the greatest of its flaws ,


Why ! Is it insubordinate of me ? You say ,


That I refuse to intimidate the poor , while the powerful stay ,


That I treat people as many within and some above the law ,


So that the innocent find no respite while the abusers are sheltered by law,


This mockery of justice I refuse to partake in ,


And choose to rebel in the service of the poor and general public .
