They Hit the Man, and Parade the Woman (my variation of “The Goose and the Common”)

They hit the man, and parade the woman,

Who won’t take part, in the life so common,

Their identities, they shall lose,

The constancy, of mankind’s abuse.

 

Mob law demands, that they atone,

Thus, they have the fear, of being alone,

So with their light, they become blind,

To wage their wars, that are so unkind.

 

Hence, they, poor and wretched, can’t escape,

The numbers matter, mob law shan’t break,

With garish smiles, they shall abhor,

Hiding behind, this social law.

 

Mob law insults the man or woman,

Who obeys the rules, of the life so common,

They’re too far behind, they can’t get back,

Thus, their cosmic joke, they’ll continue to crack.
