More on Human ABILITY to REASON, Human RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 165

Most likely to be published later this spring/summer of 2020, 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. 165 - Constitutional Crisis / 1st Reprise


      The founders and framers ensured a constitutional as well humanitarian crisis by conveniently designating therefore ethically compromising as three fifths all other Persons not otherwise specified.

      Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.

      U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 2, Clause 3

      The great compromise and contradiction was contrived ironically amid assuring equal representation for states regardless of size by population and geography upon declaring equality upon creation thus unalienable rights upon self-evidence.

      The logical, ethical contradiction therefore disconnection of course contagiously festered and cancerously furthered until today, and will unavoidably do as so long inconsistency remains. For once any governmental law, tax, regulation, policy, prohibition, ban/sanction, program, bail-out or loan specifies any person or any group for any objective proposed as political, economic, social, just, fair, equitable even moral, there immediately emerges two classes of people; the designated versus the undesignated. Politically inherent to these legalities, either the designated or undesignated is tolerated, allowed, accepted, favored, privileged and/or benefited, versus the other not tolerated , not allowed, not accepted, not favored, not privileged and/or not benefited even proactively harmed else terminated.

      Whether intentional or not by such categorical distinctions in law, there consistently lurks a darker evil thus constantly occurs a deeper injury upon individuality. Consequently in direct proportion per the inevitable causality, injured as well is society. Obviously, covetousness is at core of the rot, closely followed by presumption then perversion if to remain discontented until satiation.

Sixty-six thousand or so, fallen upon dirt, mud and snow
Blood flowed, slowed then dried amid revolutionary throes
“Don’t tread on me” the meme decreed o’er the dissented
So, ever the story of every fury holy hence mortally scented

O the mystical to persuade with the mysterious brocades
To sway the hysterical to parade `fore masses to dissuade
Threat of accusation, fear of retaliation, as blades to napes
Forced to pay, so to escape kakistocracy’s promenades

---

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
