All's fair

All's fair, eh?
In love, war —
No more?
Not life, law?

But why so, eh?
What's fair
For one's not so
For all, is it?

So fair's not
Universal —
Because I love
Have I the right

To brook no
Reversal?
Perhaps we need
To question if

There's nothing
Fair in love
Or war or life
Or law at all.

  1. I just like this a lot. Particularly enjoyed the rhyme of Universal with Reversal in the same place in each verse.
