Justice For No Man

ImageEveryone has the basic right
To get justice with all its might
Which due process should fight
for real justice to shade its light.

But today as politics come to play
or richness and power interplay
With judicial systems foreplay
Justice delayed in so many way.

Justice delayed, justice denied
An unjust lawyer motto and pride
Only to show their wit as they ride
in the hall of justice with all stride.
but never for lawyers who abide
by truth their conscience can't hide.

Let's not circumvent truth with lies
Or trickery of our masterful ability
To set a culprit free from agony
in our greed for honey and money
at the expense of our honor and dignity
before God and the eyes of humanity.

You could tell that you put a lot of emotions and passion into this poem. I liked the rhyming in this one. It kind of sounded like a rap song, though :(

To shade its light? Did you mean to shine its light? So many "ways"? "Lawyers motto"? Lost the rythm near the end as lies and ability didn't go together.

This did sound like it could be a song. Be it rap, punk, alternative, or polka. I liked the scheme you had.

It does seem like it needs some cleaning up but after that it could be pretty good.

good stuff, id add an 'a' to this line "Justice delayed in so many way" so it would end in "many a way", makes it plural. Love the political stuff, get angry and feel something, do something, just don't break a law.

i agree with Lemon. the concept was likeable for me, and the emotion seemed right. but i just feel like it needs to be fixed up.
