Thinking of Insurrection

 

It all comes down to a group of nine
who most of the time voted party line,
and having overturned Roe to great dismay
would they dare to vote again that way?
 
When our freedom is threatened, we fight.
The longer they delay more reason for fright.
Is war almost upon us, has Putin won?
Has misinformation our nation undone?
 
We'll know what game we're in soon.
Will nine Justices sing out of tune?
Strike a discordant note that Trump hears
Or will they sing unison as he fears.
 
Is seeking truth a romantic illusion?
Will nine Justices tell us it’s just a delusion?
