Justice Demands

Have you ever told a lie? (Don't answer that!)

By Skyler SaundersPublished 7 years ago 1 min read
The Golden Gavel and Block

If there is supposed be truth in a matter

Then let it fully reign.

Through all of the noise and the clatter,

Never let it be held in vain.

With the case of the concept of honesty

There is a deep understanding.

When it is called the best policy

Then lies are not at all demanding.

The highest seat in the land

Should be held by the best judge

Reality will demand

That with the law, the word should not budge.

Just as long as all relations are dealt with verity,

Then we will see justice carried out with clarity.
