Andrew Culjak Poet Couplet

Might Makes Right

The arrogance of justice
In foreign eyes is seen
When dealt by hands so callous
And minds uncomprehending;
That justice served not justice won
Is not justice at all,
But fear which drives the mighty
To dominate the small.

Gershon Wolf January 2, 2020 at 8:43 PM Seen by these 'native son's eyes' too, both here in the USA and abroad. In fact, 'justice' seems to be something far, far removed from ethical ideals. Profound verse, Andrew. Thanks you, Gershon
