Flowers & Fists

Flowers & Fists

if there's no mediation
between
flowers and fists
then everything
becomes
either flowers
or
fists

as we know
there's gotta be room
for beauty
and the sublime
when they're needed
as well as
might and discipline
when they're needed too

cause it's a foolish thing
to imagine
things can
or even ought to be
all flowers
or
all fists

it's a foolish thing
to imagine
true freedom
without
just laws 
and order
or anything
resembling
just
law and order
without
the true freedom
to create
them
