Law And Justice.



Lawyers keep on arguing  lies
 Judges go on pronouncing lies.
First lies become evidences
Then they turn out as judgements
 To hear this you pay.
 To receive it I pay.
They both demand highly
 We both pay liberally.
 They become rich quickly
 We become poor even more quickly
Justice is denied to the rightful.
 it is sold to the unlawful.
The courts pass orders grandly
 Making the righteous penniless mostly
 Transforming the erroneous wealthy immediately.
 That is law in short.
 That is legality in brief.
 Well, that is called Justice.
