Most likely to be published later this winter of 2020/2021, my 11th book entitled appropriately; More Proems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the previous....
PROEM & POEM No. 183 - The Rescissionist / Part 13
At each volatile, violent juncture as encountered presently, there arises an irresistible allure to strengthen government so to reestablish civility, safety thus incrementally expanding a bit further the very cause and core of the problem; political power. As political power expands, so increases the political struggle to control it, as well the possibility of violent seizure. Amidst the inevitable violent struggle within the sociopolitical upheaval, widespread fear encourages a general willingness to support a totalitarian solution.
As much rescission seems counter-intuitive at such times, it is the only logical as well ethical correction.

O to rescind hence sends the message to mayors despotic
To governors autocratic, to others sympathetic or apathetic
So rescind as well, to decrescendo the swell tyrannical
The pell-mell economical, the turmoil social and political
---
Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
