I just came across a poem, which in light of recent events surrounding C-36 seems apt. Therefore, I thought I'd share...

 

very fine laws

 

I have heard that your laws are very fine

Very strong and right

I'm afraid they don't do much

For me.

 

For chaos has a sneaky hand

To reach between the rules

If you don't believe me, just

Go look out the window.

 

Here is the victim's face.

I know you don't like to see it.

Why not cover it, then

With a pillow, for example?

 

All of us fall through the cracks

Through the slippery fingers

Of your fine and righteous laws

You may as well join us

Down here laughing.

 

- Suzanne Vega
