HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 74

Most likely to be published later this spring of 2018, my 10th book currently entitled; 100 Proems & Poems on the HUMAN ABILITY to REASON, HUMAN RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover below merely a working version....

PROEM & POEM No. 74 - Individualism versus Despotism or Elitism

      At risk appearing repetitive (i.e. No. 54)… Individualism is logically simple per the constant respect and consistent regard for the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent; an ethically immutable prerequisite to all matters mutual hence collective too.

      Despotism or Elitism is arbitrarily complex per the constant disrespect and consistent disregard for the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent; an unethically indispensable priority over all matters mutual, collective too,  hence individual always.

Kings and their things, first coveted and worst thus lifted
Bucketed, coffered, pursed, often clipped, always shifted
Coin and corn plundered, purloined for bourns mongered
Fitly squandered the denizens by diadems unencumbered

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
