House of Paine

good godwin

here's about 
the primo  limit 
of equality burgery 


======================


It is true that courts 
are meanspirited, 
intriguing and servile
 and that this disposition
 is transferred by contagion 
from them 
to all ranks of society

 But accumulation brings home 
a servile and truckling spirit
 by no circuitous method
 to every house 
in the nation

 Observe the pauper fawning
 with abject vileness
 upon his rich benefactor

 speechless with sensations 
of gratitude
 for having received 
that which he ought 
to have claimed
 not indeed with arrogance
 or a dictatorial 
and overbearing temper
 but with the spirit of a man
 discussing with a man
 and 
resting his cause
 only on the justice 
of his claim


 Observe the servants
 that follow 
in a rich man's train
 watchful of his looks
 anticipating his commands
 not daring 
to reply to his insolence
 all their time 
and their efforts
 under the direction 
of his caprice


 Observe the tradesman
 how he studies 
the passions of his customers
 not to correct
 but to pamper them
 the vileness 
of his flattery 
and 
the systematical constancy
 with which he exaggerates
 the merit of his commodities

 Observe the practices 
of a popular election
 where the great mass
 are purchased by obsequiousness
 by intemperance and bribery
 or 
driven by unmanly
 threats 
of poverty and persecution

 Indeed 'the age of chivalry 
is' not 'gone'!

 The feudal spirit
 still survives
 that reduced 
the great mass of mankind
 to the rank 
of slaves and cattle
 for the service of a few. 

---------------------------

too bad this righteous fire 
ain't worth a fig toady

when spewed  as it still iz
  from every  mouth in boho city 

notice the feudal reference
indeed that was the klass enemy
equality fought well
 burgers could defeat 
estates and their privilages 
250 years ago 
 and if not straight up
then over the haul
out wit and out last em

 ever after though
a new inequality
an earned one 
yes with the burger rules in place 
individual self produced merit
 became the barrier 
to the lower parts rise
