Truth and Justice
Veritas = VAIR-ee-taws
Aequitas = EK-wee-taws
I recently watched the Boondock Saints, and their speech at the Courtroom wrote this poem
for me
Truth
Justice
Veritas
Et Aequitas
Two principles which every one lives by
Now do not kill, do not rape, do not steal
All men and faiths
Can agree
Never
Sin
Evil
Beckons
Those of us
Who do not know
So shepherds we shall be, for thee my Lord
Do not corrupt yourself, for I shall come
If you ignore
My warning
And you
Fall
