Where does the word liability come from?
© 2001 Bruce V. Bracken
Does it mean your ability
To make somebody lie down
If so, is it face down, face up, on the side
Under the sacrificial knife?
Or does it mean your ability to make somebody
Spout the lies about each bourgeois' duty
To exist at the pleasure of society?
You see, we were always pliable
Always pliable
But not anymore
