If there be a law
there are too many flaws
that come and go in ease
as they go about in a tease.
The law of the land
looks complicated and grand
they include clauses and sections
that now have become fictions.
Law, they say is common to all
no distinctions between poor and rich in all
there is a lot of discriminations
that is the cause of terminations.
What for is law? Query all
when there be no justice at all
while the wealthy go free
the poor get trapped in the spree.
Legality exists in the face
finding nothing else in its place
it continues in books and courts
causing an expense of remarkable note.
That be true of law in modern days
as there are no hitches in the race
that go to hold justice with great respect
being endorsed by testimony in any aspect.

Alas today’s laws are not written to protect the common man but the corporation.
Thanks for coming to my blog and commenting and yes enduring being a single mom because my ex was a drinker who did not to this day change. He married another drinker! Go figure. I am in the Security Industry and a Paralegal and don’t do those types of things, growing up in the 1960’s in an Irish Catholic home of 7 kids kept me busy enough. Your poem resonates with me as I am a justice seeker and the wealthy just seem to get weather…;the poor keep getting nowhere ahead. I will keep coming by – friend Jackie
