Federalism

Hermes and his cousin Dionysus
are not the same as Apollo,
and so a duality is defined
for people inclined toward conservatism
or revolution, no solution
has been found for the mix, we continue
the war of classic characteristics,
conservatives hold to tradition and
order, revolutionaries seek
power through disorder; which is virtue,
which is sin? Who will win?
Conservatives define the origin
of the moral, which the revolutionaries
destroy as they see fit, both sit on
different thrones seeking to overthrow
the other: controlled separation,
federalism, may be the only
path to control the endless
wrath of man.
