You have a razor-sharp mind
And a barb wit
You speak eloquently
It matches
Your long black damask robe.
In your court
You have a zest for verbal combat
And strongly worded views
On all issues.
But when you scribe your notes
They are all lies
Your lying pen emits
Blood monies
And the cries of the oppressed.
A wise and experienced man
Armed with hired hands
That trapped litigants
Laden with fortune
And waiting to be swooped.
You traded the gavel of Justice
With jet ski and muscle mustang
You love to acquire high-end things
At the expense of people's rights
And honor.

A unforgettable poem that does justice to the honor of being Poem of the Day and long to be remembered.
To call out evil, Is incredibly daring and fair To call it out so beautifully and well, Not many can or dare. A most wonderfully written and courageous poem! Should be held as an example. with universal qualities
To preach something and to practice the very opposite. This world is full of such people. A bold voice yours against them. Good poem on a social theme, Rose Marie 10+
Let's justice start with us PH. Let's sow the seed of justice in our families, in our children, the only way to build a more and more just society.
It is sad, for there are still many outside there avid of power and ready to do anything to maintain others in modern slavery.
This gives glimpse into a corrupt world where laws are formulated to protect human values, but a master manipulator uses them to wield power. His brain is probably drenched in testosterone.
