Filing a case in court
fighting for a cause in terms
not bothered about the just and unjust
pushing the facts and figures back
going ahead with their own agenda
finally getting the verdict
that comes in a form of settlement
signed by both parties with consent
the plaintiff and defendant agreeing to terms
the judge specifying the time frame
and stipulating the conditions to be fulfilled
the plaintiffs drag the settlement for months
be it either because of their ignorance
or be it due to their inefficiency
the defendant stands lost in the wilderness
with the Judge and the lawyers
accompanying him in his sail over nothingness.
