The poem:
Government policies and destinies
 
If palm lines unravel destiny, 
then they must be defined by government policies, 
Because we only seem to live within their directives, 
collective futures have defined the stars, the forks, 
the islands, or any other markings on the hand, 
are the cosmic stamp, sealed by the bureaucrats, 
our birth charts are made, 
not by the planets but by the sycophants
by just a stamp, on an affidavit,
Isn't this labyrinth of governance, an elaborate illusion of free will.
