On the news I saw his wife hold his arm as he led her down the sidewalk swinging his cane. He was smiling. His eyes were open. She wasn’t leading him. The cane was a prop. His act had been none too convincing from the get go. He must have thought the jury was going to go his way, that last walk into the courthouse. The jurors may not have seen that, But they saw enough and apparently they weren’t blind either. |

Perfect poem, hope he gets what he deserves. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

They will probably appeal it until he dies of old age and he never does any time. ~L |

For what he once was to people to what he's become...I sure don't envy him. You know what they say..."A hard 'time' has no conscious". If you catch my drift...  ...just bein' Bluesy |

Bluesy, I'd never heard that before. It is a good one that I'm glad you shared with me and I can relate to it very well. ~L |
