The lack of ethics Gorsuch showed
Accepting of a seat
That had been stolen, down the road
Seems destined to repeat.
As lo! a party candidate
Accepts the party vote
Who lies profusely, if not great,
His oath of minor note.
To be a judge, yet disregard
The way of law, impartial,
All jurisprudence to discard
Belligerent and martial;
Who parses his words to mislead,
Omits, obfuscates, lies,
And lo! what verdicts must succeed
Such bold hypocrisies?
To see a nation fumble, fall
Was never my desire,
But Gorsuch and his ilk, et al.
Have lit the raging fire.
So human nature often is
Though it might better be—
I sing my witness, much remiss
The travesty I see.
