Gaveling judges take a break to converse
With trees in a whisper no time to rehearse,
If only an allegory could swear on its oath,
Would justice evolve enrobed in them both?
(them is judges and trees, don't think me a fool
cause allegories ain’t reality, they done flunked out of school)
With suspense of Mike Hammer,
The end-zone the slammer
A telephone rang and the caller hung on,
Not wanting to realize the lady was gone.
Now when I was a child,
Backyards allowed playing, though trees never smiled.
And crickets were bad-asses, place your hand on your heart,
As judges start gaveling, sine qua non- truth's depart.
