TOO CLOSE TO THE EDGE

TOO CLOSE TO THE EDGE Whether one is in a state of fury Or even lost in sad desperation Never to antagonise the jury When they review all the information And they approach their deliberation The verdict can be either good or bad When this trial is over you will be glad The outcome will be prison or locked ward Perhaps the best is to declare me mad And never trust me again with a sword
