Balance

Justice, measure, right,

Prudence, weighed equilibrium,

Acts sustained by truth.

Very secret lodges,

Everywhere active above

Ground and under it,

Obscured by acts of

Violence in the name of some

Political creed;

Ludicrous ideals

That are based on a power

Ravenous hunger.

We attempt to deal

With them day in, day out, but

Fighting them is moot.

They forever win;

We cannot live without them;

They are in control.

Even governments

Kowtow to their insidious

Merciless clutches…

Which are so sharpened,

That any dissension will

Be shredded to pieces!
