the normal decent heart

[fledgist]

 rage overflows the normal decent heart

breaking  the rule of ordinary mind

to take us right back to a sorry start

 

where we are governed by no common art

of ancient orders that were never kind

rage overflows the normal decent heart

 

once each has learnt that justice will depart

with no conclusion save the one designed

to take us right back to a sorry start

 

ensuring that  all of our limbs will smart

while we'll be stuck more deeply in the bind

rage overflows the normal decent heart

 

while all the  good and kindly fall apart

and the best choices have now been declined

to take us right back to a sorry start

 

where those who gather do not give a fart

for what should matter and the world seems blind

rage overflows the normal decent heart

to take us right back to a sorry start
