A Jury of Six Emotions

A Jury of Six Emotions
There was a jury of six emotions;
Anger, Sadness, Joy, Happiness, Love, and, Desire
	An emotion Anger was charged with road rage	
In deliberations the juror anger could relate
Sadness was encompassed by grief that the victim got his face slammed
Happiness was unaffected
Love new it would overcome it all in the world
Joy saw peace to come
And Desire saw it as a crime of passion
It was a hung jury
Never let your emotions win out
Everyone knows hangman never wins!
