Money buys not justice but freedom; laws are elastic for the rich; the rich man's club gets off on technicalities, corruption extortion manipulation, exploitation are their rules; the kangaroo court sits lectures to the poor, sucks up to folding mammon; but the supreme court is not an American court; God does not plea bargain.

It is seldom that I am able to truly see an act of justice, you are very right. Beautiful writing, as always.

Another great poem. Justice like anything else, for the rich. Nine times out of ten the poor man never gets justice. But every now and again, twenty years down the line They manage to get the justice they deserve. But their few and far between. Fantastic write.
