Poems
Dec 2019
structure (of a republic)
three equal parts
make a whole
that is how it was designed
to function
balance is everything
one force checking the other
they knew…the danger of…
the ultimate force…
power
power is always hungry
power is insatiable
power is not possessed
it possesses whatever it enters
it must always be checked
…constrained
by other forces
anyone assigned to
one of the parts
must use their power
to constrain the power
in the other parts
they designed parts
not parties
parties cannot constrain
themselves
that is why we have parts
to constrain power
there really is no other reason
