JUSTICE RE-DRESSED
It should have been predicted by
Sheer logic of the head
That Justices in dresses would
Concur that gays should wed!
The habits of the past were changed
On that Supreme Court day–
Traditional traditions all
Transmogrified away.
On TV, boys were kissing boys,
And girls were kissing girls,
While fat, white, male Republicans
Were pulling out their curls.
The thing that never changes is
That change is here to stay,
Though change-deniers backward-march
To drums of yesterday.
Or, as my daddy wryly said,
While stroking his old dome,
“The folks who stand in front of trains
Will never ride them home!”
