What’s the Issue

benevolence is not the issue

nor tyranny, nor oppression

benign dictatorships or bad

nor anarchy, nor rule of law

nor what is or has ever been

nor any done or undone act

nor any benefit or detriment

not one of these is the issue

not now and not ever before

the issue is, it will always be

our own reply to good or ill
