It's The Law
by Diogenes Bob

Gravity is the law
That holds people down.
It causes our feet
The pavement to pound.

It makes our chins
Droop and sag;
Beautiful breast
Become like tea bags.

And why is it
That we can't fly?
Gravity,
That's why!

Gravity causes things
To plummet and break.
It makes leaves fall
So that we have to rake.
It is the reason
We can't jump over things.
It is why the fall
Must follow the spring.

It is unconstitutional,
To say the least,
It discriminates against
The weak and obese.

But although it seems
That this law isn't fair,
It keeps all the crap
From floating in the air.

So it is sad, but true,
That gravity we need
So that we all
Might continue to breathe.
