Part Duex: Legislating Morality - Should the State Take a Stand on First Things? ala Peter Kreeft (with a little help from C.S. Lewis)

Karsten Piper recently inspired me to do so more poetry, and also linked to 22 other modern poets and their poems (including this poem by Tony Hoagland that was pretty deep). I very rarely write in verse, and I don’t even know if I did it right…but hey, I tried.
