What is this life to only dare,
stand idly by, do nothing, stare?
To make no stand and simply let-
Another rise above the parapet.
Choose not to see wrongs done en-masse
Help kick the truth into long grass.
Choose not to see what’s plain as day,
Turn a blind eye, look away.
Spot a short cut then advance
To trample truth with a merry dance.
While protocols help justice die,
Ignore betrayal of big sad I.
A poor life this, to only dare
Stand idly by, do nothing, stare.
