Poem: Rules, or freedom

Rules are tools
to keep the unruly in line –
or that’s the idea, at least.

Rules are restrictive, inactive, inflexible
and incapable of making allowances –
that’s the idea of most of them.

Rules are meant to make fools
of those who disobey and in that way
they also make the self-righteous smirk in satisfaction.
