A Fable
There was a king, who fairness stressed,
and ruled with great dispassion.
The land he ruled was richly blessed,
yet no one knew compassion.
The rich more richer, selfish grew,
locked in their crypts of riches.
All love was lost from mortal view
by those self-centered sons of bitches.
Their greed ruled all their conscious thought
and bastardized their senses,
With stronger vaults, protection bought,
they penned themselves with fences.
Then came a man, who kindness preached.
the word he spoke was charity.
Though few it was, his logic reached,
they nailed him to a two branch tree!
