The Law
The rule of law,
It is often said...
Is the backbone of our system,
To all, our leaders and those led.
However, one symbol shows both
Its strength and its needs...
The lady, a statue and blindfolded,
Perhaps not seeing all deeds.
This blindness, often
Manifested through money and power,
Has shown to many, great injustice,
Certainly not our finest hour.
Yet while one hopes to see change
Through the ridicule and derision.
Maybe only then can this system
Restore some lost vision.
