Order! Order!
The court hall couldn’t be calmed
The gavel sinks in the clamour; unheard.
Morphed observations chime in
New findings erupt with din.
Themis removes the black ribbon
She detests the sight!
Weighing scales in her hands tilt
She drops it!
Fairness and wealth stay unbalanced.
Her swift sword is rusted
By the unjust practices to it subjected.
She breaks it into two.
Walking out, she pushes aside-
the procurators in black, gives a look snide.
The Lady Justice ascends steep steps
To the tower overlooking the land
She detests the sight!
Pigeons flutter their wings into news
Blinding all sights witnessed.
Every reason is a story
Of cheat, deceit or treason gory.
What is the speed of law? of justice?
Their line remains long, to the jury
No privilege, no power, to fend their fury.
Waiting in pain for needful gain
Time crawls for those with no penny
Lady Justice watches in agony.
She detests the sight!
Law builds justice, and proves worthy.
Now she rises, it is The Judgement Day.
The verdict so ruthless she will say.
Rest not; in worn books as acts and sections
Dusty files bury not; the truth for odd reasons
Hear the cry of the common man.
As they writhe under heavy feet
Laws guard man in a world off beat.
Manoeuvre the mud like a tough machine
Bring the sunken people to pure sunshine.
Cleanse and breathe new life into them.
