HIPAA
Laws that govern the protection of hospitals
Penal codes that govern the laws of (USA) men
And what about the laws that govern the truth
There’s a tide that is honest and leads when
Laws protecting this and that fail written by a pen
Having to step out of the Torahs way, every now and then
Deciding a destiny, costing more than gold, one aspires
A judgement of convictions, rising above sentencing
The choices sitting before you are costly fires
Codes of ethics, standards of practice, oh the law tires
Hurting and hindering more than protecting innocent life
Having to make verdicts and to be the judge
Stepping off-limits defining integrity relevant per
The voice within though pushed won’t fudge
And the jury that can’t hear, ultimately will misjudge
But HIPAA won, the penal code vanished
And the man slit the throat of his dogs
The neighbors children are next
It doesn’t matter for the HIPAA Law gods
Silence fell because the determinate kills dialogues
