By laws of equality we shall not abide
We are not equal until they take my side
To measure me by my honest ability
Is just an act of outright futility
As we try to stand here hand in hand
It is a look at my face that they demand
Morning ... Hope you have a great day ... And good luck in your endeavors.

"Here's Looking at You, Kid"
For those in which compassion abounds
And think their nobility is beyond compare
As upon others you wish that karma frowns
You fail to recognize the devil's stare
As we all stutter and cry for the lost
At the tyrant's futile attempts to contain
The whip demands service at all cost
Making the losers all that remain
When your Masters rule with fire and steel
Be careful in the mirror your gaze is true
As a cautious closer peek is sure to reveal
What their vile hearts have in store for you
But the mirror never fails to astound
And those dark of heart might beware
For when the mirror is not upside down
It will reflect what is truly there
There are those who keep mirrors crossed
For which to flummox and feign
From where every pitch was tossed
So that the oligarch might reign
How do you know your gaze is real
And a reflection of the better you
Or merely there with intent to steal
Every soul and replace with a world view
