everybody knows
there ain’t no equal justice
those with money
use the law for protection
those without serious cash
are who they’re protected from
the law is mostly
a contract with the wealthy
to protect and serve
their personal needs and wants
while offering to the poor
a convoluted promise
like the biblical ones
where heaven’s a real reward
so too is justice
set forth as attainable
though neither one of the two
has ever been proven true
as the rusted chains of belief anchor truth to the bottom on the seabed of despair evil moves down main street with strong strides never diverting its eyes from the prize a mind willing to accept the smelted and refined ether of the divine now cast into a golden calf those neatly bound pages of man’s perceptions of god’s law
the shattered bones of our forefathers can be found beneath the foundations and railways of this country their dreams ground into the mortar used to bond the bricks of greed forming the halls of blind justice where descendants are ushered through to steal what is left of their pride as a small token of society’s appreciation for their forefathers’ sacrifice those demanding equality will be given their day in court but it will not matter all shall be buried in the shallow grave of deceit
