Justice
                                              primordial 
                                     but always right-minded
                                "right" is "right" yet if all argue.
                                    if all claims, it's still wrong.
                                            Alliance tricks
                                                Due bribes

                                                 Justice
                                            Claim fallacy
                                        Cruelty never shies.
                                 True justice cannot loom alone.
                                    Meekness harms evidence
                                          Says half the facts
                                                 Vaguely

                                                 Justice
                                         Patent grace fruit
                                   That is long-lasting peace.
                               Without regard, justice is naught
                                   Madness and lawlessness.
                                       Fresh fruit would cease.
                                                Mayhem.

                                                  Justice
                                          Proved truthfulness
                                       Honesty bears a throne. 
                                     Unheeded violators thrive.
                                          Probity rules within.
                                             Set up fairness
                                                  Rightness

                                                   Justice
                                           Law is truth sound
                                         Confident, trustworthy.
                                       Fair society shall reign life
                                         Virtue enlightened soul
                                              Justice fine faith
                                                   Fairness

                                                   Justice
                                         Strengthen the bonds
                                        Unjust behavior shown
                                    Tackle in the fight for justness
                                        Justice gold eye is just
                                          Goodness does scold
                                                   Chastise.

                                                     Justice
                                               Truth allot due
                                          Justice delay not just
                                   Not in our hands, to be truthful.
                                       No pity for guilt shame.
                                              False law is fraud.
                                                     Harmful.

There are two sides to every coin my friend. Right now we are living in the last days. At least that is what I believe. Soon Jesus will return to set things right. God Bless, JB

True, Judy, the end is too close, perhaps not in our age, but we are speeding toward it. But I hope I won't be here. Blessings and hugs, Judy.

Don't know how you have the patience to write one of these 'heptastitches,' Lasaad. And especially on a topic so complex. Kudos, Gershon

Nicely-written progression of justice and ending with "Justice delay not just." So true. Enjoyed it, Lasaad, and best wishes in the contest.
