Notes About The Poem

Contest: Pleiades 5 Sponsor: Joseph May

19 September 2023

Lawyer

Legal eagle talks fast
Little lies often passed
Litigation - cash cow
Loads of money - and how
Larcenists? All have rights
Lost the case? Still sleeps nights
Lamborghini? Outside

My wife used to work for an insurance company. They had more lawyers on staff than all other workers combined.
