Justice

Justice calls us
     --to be fair in our dealings,
          --to heal, 
             --to do no harm,
Justice demands we live
             --by the Golden Rule
          --treating others as we would be treated,
Justice says we go
     --beyond the law to right a wrong.
Justice is our incentive
     --to see all people treated the same.
