Short Witness Stand Poems

When you feel 
No guilt whatsoever
Rolling in uproarious laughter
When you see 
Some kid "crying"
On the witness stand;
Houston does have a problem
And something 
Is really rotten
In Denmark.

Love here i am, again
Sitting in the witness stand
Barely holding on
To a few things
That i have
Trying to explain my case
Deep down inside
How can i give you anything
When i am still hurting, inside and
Feeling like a broken string...

on the
witness stand
my knees buckled
my throat 
was dry
as, i soften
my tongue
listening and 
showing
sweet mercy
towards the
young Negro 
slave
who was
brutally 
whip beaten
thus, accused of
murdering
a prejudice and
abusive
white plantation
owner
all for the 
love of 
money...

We never want to do wrong.
We always wanted to do right.

But the evil that men do
trespasses our life
and steals the truth out of our sight.

That is why, my friend,
and history can be summoned
                        to the witness stand,

the wrong could always rule,
                   with indestructible might.

your honor
my client comes 
to the witness stand
if it pleases the court
zip-to-fact o circumstantial evidence
the propensity of the situation
is due to the lack of fabrication
of the circumstances thus
my client articulates and reciprocates
the jurisprudence of these 
counterfeit  allegations and bogus charges
in conclusion i throw myself before 
the sweet mercy of this court
oh justice is blind...

Bloodshed in foreign hills
Amidst the green red can be seen
Grave site with many kills
He wishes the war was done

A suitcase filled with life
Closing the door, his pleas ignored
Enough of all the strife
A new life has begun

On the witness stand
Burdened heart, eyes distraught
Courageous raised right hand
Justice despite the threats

Decision to be made
His heart he’ll give for her to live
No options left to be played
A death he’ll always regret...
