Whe’r thou bear witness to scallawags and swindlers released
and with that – law further berattled and crime increased;
or dost thou look upon a babbling want-wit thug set free
only to continuate in glee, the unchanged distemper
upon the same younker, where a day hence he began his spree;
or witness contagious blastments of a youngling mob that raids,
no one afraid from effect in absconding with jewels and shoes
and then be righted “Caused not but mobs but by kids with the blues”;
or witness scanted borders that freely welcome – yes the guiltless
but too oft masking felons, rapers, thugs and slaves
and far too many far eastern young men got-aways.
To look upon such shortage of quick mettle, calls to be settled;
this slubbering is but a plan that cannot stand, being the work of the devil.
What ingrafted, ill-divined evil sets its course upon us?
What arrant snollygosters and busky brachs bettle o’er us?
The grumbletons have awak’nd are alarum’d and formed ranks,
they see the grand scheme chalked forth – they are quite quanked.
Willst they be fopp’d and fobb’d by this deadly handed threat?
Or willst they heave the gorge sufficient and ample votes beget? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
