At the club?
You meet this young lady.
The sign says you must be twenty-one to enter.

So you talk.
So you dance.
So you kiss.
And maybe do a little more.

You legal over the require entrance age.
Then days later you get a visit?
After been accused of being with a minor.

The news pounce.
Quick to report and down your image and reputation.
Cause at the club?
One shouldn't have been?

It's wasn't you?
For you were legal.
Now you awoke to a justice of injustice.

The one you kissed, talked too and did a little more.
Was strictly seventeen?
A minor within the eyes of the law.

But to you, she stated to be twenty-one.
Oh, she looked the part.
Didn't that get her passed the club security guards?

Or was it the FAKE I.D she had in her hand?

And here to some is the tricky part?

You on trial for what joy you had with her?
Getting judged more than her.

But to some she just as guilty too.
She committed a criminal crime with fake identification.
That she has gotten somewhere?

So when he facing trial for stupidity?
Shouldn't she be facing charges too?

So you see a justice of injustice can occur.
When you fooled by the image of her, at the club.
