Like the ox that loves the yoke and calls the deer a wild vagrant thing.
Lovers of the law find comfort in confinement the written law brings.
They travel with their backs to the sun, following shadows on the ground.
They spent their days tracing the outlines until the sun goes down.

Ch) They become delighted laying down their laws.
And they are more delighted when they break them all.
But I've seen you walk toward the sun, dance and never stumble once.
No man's law can bind you for you see no shadows to follow.

One arrived too soon, ate the finest of the feast.
Soon there were several overfed.
They made the connection between wealth and power
And the easy way followers are led.
They decided to invent violations. The law was written that day.
The people were conditioned to politely conform and pretend it should be that way.
