How would all the sums of columns meet?

What answer would the figures give,
Positive or negative?
Value judgments would abound,
Would you...

The gavel slammed its judgement down
On my impassioned plea,
Doomed to run-on sentences
Served concurrently.

Consciously committing consistent crime.

passing the right or wrong...

In this grand stage, with tomorrow
