The Poet-The Constitution

The Constitution
“We the People” chose those words
two hundred years ago...and more.
But little knew the hazards
translations can outpour.

Seems ev’ry time a Prez makes Feds
law precedents oft change.
I wonder why the new bipeds
old judgments now estrange.

The words within appear in ink,
containing freedmen’s chi.
Interpreters must pause to think...
your gist may just morph destiny.
