Judgement on Justice
Have we lost sight of justice?
What does real justice look like
What does true justice taste like
What does full justice feel like
Is justice handed down by learned lettered lawyers
In horsehair wigs and flowing gowns from on high
Or delivered from twelve true and honest citizens
Sitting in a jury room after considering all the evidence
Is justice in the head, heart, and hands of the victim
I think not
Is it carried out when the sentence is carried out
Written down the legal ledgers recorded for posterity
Is justice found in the crowded streets or the hallowed halls
Just justice treat the victim and accused equally
Or are the scales of justice tilted and unbalanced
The more I seek out answers, the more questions I uncover
Can someone help me discover
The ultimate judgement on justice
