The Law

Post by Okoromiko Daniel »

The Law

The law as proud as satan
Known to all nations
Master of all, servant to none
Though a master, but used by his servant

Strict as a soldier not merciful
Put's man behind bars and to death
Forces it's vicitm to obey without an option
Ensuring orderliness in a society

Providing a path for men to follow
Created by men made a master
Living right from the day of creation
A tool for punishing both the guilty and innocent

Can we be free from the claws of the law?
For I fear the law
Who can conquer the law?
For he is no respecter of man

Your style is intense. I love the imagery of the claws of law. My favorite line is "Created by men made a master". The same could be said of technology.

Relating technology with the law they are two vital and powerful instrument in our society and if they get into the wrong hands can cause really serious. The law being supreme should be guided judiciously and the law really have claws and when you are caught up in it the imaginary claws tend to become real.
