There Is A Justice Below The Heavens

There is a justice below the heavens That in a way levels every-body Human with human, and human with non-human: A justice they used to say that is: Writ in the heavens; though observed below. Pope and emperor (of old): king and President and prime minister; The grave-digger; the head of department; The soldier; the cleaner; the free; The prisoner; what else, what else: All these are flattened long-term below the heavens By that unwritten justice. ‘Tis a justice that is not corrupt nor can Be bribed or bought or prejudiced: Moving constant as the stars and suns Ruling without war, or law, or parliaments It needs not armies; Yet holds us all and we, and we, Respect it all the more for what it is Respect from our hearts, not fear – For after all we agree with what we have to.
