Court is now in session
With gavel in hand
We are the Jury
And justice we demand
No you cannot plead your case
We’ve heard it all before
We find you guilty on all accounts
and sentence you once more
Your life hangs in the balance
What punishment will you receive?
We the judges; the all mighty
Won’t offer you reprieve
We are far from perfect
But won’t ever let you know
Why we turn a blind eye
To the persecution we bestow
Judgment is a reflection
of the punishers’ history
and the condemnation
appointed by their own jury
It is all so wry
And plain to see
We the Jury are the punished
And these prisoners will never set you free
10/13/17 -Reflecting upon how we (society) judges, have been judged ourselves and how the cycle still continues.
