Raining Scales of Justice

drooping flowers crave water 
when sunshine is not enough

freedom craves equality
when unshackled is insufficient

falling rain sees not what it rejuvenates 
falling equally on all it touches

though blind
as an albino bat
raining justice poops
choices as she pleases:

unbalanced scales
a juxtaposed metaphor
of the equality of blindness
