Granted men Have every right under The God given sun To be as they wish, Ignorant and bold, Sarcastic and cocky, Beautiful and ugly, To be assailants to the kind at heart, Those needing acceptance, The lonely few with good souls, And it is granted. Where is justice But in a verse, Behind closed doors in your Most private collection, The guilded fist to air In a drunken rage to what You had seen earlier And how we wish we had spoken Up. Granted we know it was wrong, And as we have done nothing, It was granted.... Oh to have punched his mouth, Instead I bit my lips, And they bled too.
