Burke Said It Best

Burke said it best:
A culture must conserve.
Revolutions that raze their history,
Sire squalor and mayhem.

A champion of liberty
Wed to rational authority
With cohesion to the past.
Preserving while renovating.
Reckoning the radical as poison.

Seeing the failure in passion & mobs.
Warning us:
“when bad men combine,
the good must associate;
else they will fall, one by one,
an unpitied sacrifice
in a contemptible struggle”.

The sinew of tradition
Holding the frame together
Advancing to a better future.
Good change owes its debt to the past.

Good change owes its debt to the past.
