Judicial Pendulum
As the pendulum is
influenced by gravity,
So Anthony rode
his swing.
As culture descended
into depravity
To pop influence,
not law, did he cling.
Ephemeral and
lusty love his standard,
Not the family, nor
created order.
To the libertine
he then pandered,
Swinging over a
5,000 year border.
His swing, though,
is not the issue,
It is his
arrogance toward created grace;
An act that widened existing social fissure,
An act cosmically
out of place.
This judicial
interpretation
Created positive
law.
Of the natural it
was an abjuration
Of the Holy One we
hold in awe.
A mere mortal of
the court
Transformed the
meaning of life.
With debasement of
the sacred did he cavort,
Cutting divine
attachment with his judicial knife.
