“In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place, oblige it to control itself.”
Federalist No. 51 (James Madison)
Role of checks and balances to maintain justice and prevent tyranny was the intent here I believe.
We the people have turned our backs
On his deeds in the Jan 6th attacks
In the United States, how can this be?
Does it concern you? It concerns me
The country founded in justice and liberty
Has ignored it’s hallowed responsibility
In plain sight for the whole world to see
Does it concern you? It concerns me
He stated the constitution he would uphold
Instead chaos and disorder did unfold
He will take that oath again in January
Does it concern you? It concerns me
The Capitol the backdrop to his validation
The will of the people the will of a nation
Above the law it seems he be
Does it concern you? It concerns me
In many countries he would be in jail
His tyranny’s difficult to curtail
How is this democracy?
Does it concern you? It concerns me
So are our consciences really clear?
Where are the values we’ve held so dear?
How can we just let this be?
Does it concern you? It concerns me
I write this to we the people. My view of we the people is beyond, nations, borders ,race, color, religion, and politics. It’s the only way we win as a human race.
