The Skylark is an attempt to invite students, practitioners and observers of law to fearlessly share their point of view; and do so with facts, objectivity and reason.
Of the ox who loves his yoke
Khalil Gibran definitely used a lot of metaphor when he spoke to the lawyer through The Prophet about "the ox who loves his yoke and deems the elk and deer of the forest stray and vagrant things" or the lawmakers "to whom life is a rock, and the law a chisel with which they would carve it in their own likeness". The contributors to The Skylark may keep it simple and easy for the non-legal types to understand.
Yet leave it in no man's path
Contributions to The Skylark shall not be moderated, not even reviewed. Contributors shall have to sign up and be a member before they can share their views on The Skylark, but they are expected to moderate their own posts and not use language that hurts. To quote Khalil Gibran again, "And who is he that shall bring you to judgment if you tear off your garment yet leave it in no man's path?"
"..., you can muffle the drum, and you can loosen the strings of the lyre, but who shall command the skylark not to sing?"
Let the Skylark sing.
