Proem & Poem No. 3 - What Is Justification
by D.C. Quillan Stone

What is the justification of any arrangement intimate, private, philosophical, spiritual, theological, public, social or political between two persons or more if not Consent expressed by each individual? To go further, what is the justification of any arrangement between two dozen, two hundred, two thousand, two million or more people if not Consent expressed initially and continuously by each individual?

Gravely unjust even inhumanely tyrannical is the arrangement if merely one or one-million individuals do not give their Consent yet forced to remain in it. To respect and regard the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent, is to also respect and regard the resulting Decision and Action to remain in or leave the arrangement.

Complexity oft airs as perspicacity, as well sagacity
Mendacity as veracity, winking at each inconsistency
Like some rare comedy, yet illogicality’s carousel
Repeats the pell-mell, till night’s toll of Edgar’s bell

Proem & Poem No. 4 - What Is Justification / Reprise
by D.C. Quillan Stone

What is the justification of any political, economic Ism if not Consent expressed by every seller, buyer, barterer, trader, producer, consumer, investor, entrepreneur, lender, borrower, employer, employee, manager, labor and all other various participants in the economy? Again, to go further, what is Communism, Fascism, Old European Mercantilism, American Cronyism, as well Socialism (always dependent on any of the former), if not imposition, intervention and intrusion upon economic activity, of course lacking unanimous Consent, thus lacking justification?

All political, economic Isms, as well supporting Ideologies, without unanimous Consent cannot claim to respect and regard the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent. Instead, injustice therefore Tyranny are the only accurate claims and indictments per the force exacted upon each and every dissenting Individual.

O the isms’ schisms per statism’s trumpeted chrisms
Despotism cloaked to coax hence hoax the populism
Benevolence by violence, corpulence by fraudulence
Such opulent continuance by malevolent vehemence

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