By: Cedric McClester Madame kept An exclusive list Of well-heeled clients None were missed She held the power In her fist In case she was called on To reminisce Now she’s gone By suicide When the scales of justice Were applied Having been found guilty She couldn’t hide The myriad of crimes She had denied Her lawyer’s listing Those who came Even mentioning Them by name To expose And to shame Them publicly Just to defame Past clients are nervous No doubt That they might soon Be found out It doesn’t matter If they have clout Once their name Gets bandied about Her lawyer’s listing Those who came Even mentioning Them by name To expose And to shame Them publicly Just to defame Madame kept An exclusive list Of well-heeled clients None were missed She held the power In her fist In case she was called on To reminisce
