For those taming bureaucracy


Amen -
to when
we don't
and won't
be shaped
and taped
by stuff
and bluff
which says
and prays
good things,
but wrings
folk's necks,
breaks legs;
to make
rules take
less time,
help climb,
or for
more doors
for cor-
p'rate laws
which cov-
-er love
with tape
or stape-
-les pape-
-er work;
yet shirk.
God curse!
- dis-purse
this beast
not least.
God bless!
no less,
those who'll,
well rule
this beast
not least.
Distress,
and mess
is not
what's got
enough
bad stuff
to halt
his salt,
or stop
his whop-
-ping grace,
or dis-
-place his
love-light
with night.
Again,
Amen!
