THE JUSTICE YOU SEEK RESTS IN YOUR WALLET

THE JUSTICE YOU SEEK
RESTS IN YOUR WALLET
It’s been 6 months, 2 weeks, 4 days, 13 hours & 28 minutes
Since your lawyer started arguing out your case.
He has furnished the honourable court
With every evidence necessary.
I must confess that I love his manner of presentation.
I love his ability to boldly defend his position.
I admire his eloquence in the court room.
His confidence & power to punch holes
In the submissions of his opponent is just awesome.
You know you have a good case
And I must admit that the case ought to go your way.
But my dear plaintiff,
You know as much as I do
That before a hand goes another hand must come.
If you don’t scratch my back
 How do you expect me to have the comfort to scratch yours?
This case should have been sealed 5 months ago
But I’ve intentionally adjourned it 6 times already
Hoping you might get the hint I’ve been dropping all along.
The court clerks & bailiffs have also been dropping you
Further clues without success.
Have you ever wondered why the docket to your case
Keeps getting missing mysteriously?
It appears you believe in your counsel
More than me the judge presiding over the case.
Well,
I’ve called you to this sacred hideout
Just to find out how serious you are about your case.
The accused who was caught red-handed
Has exhibited more seriousness & zeal
To triumph in the case than you have.
He has made an incredible & juicy offer
 Which the pope might even have difficulty rejecting.
Forget the lengthy & irritating arguments
Those noisy lawyers make in the courtroom.
They will make all the arguments
But the final judgement will eventually come from me.
I represent the law!
The law rests in my bosom!!
I am the law!!!
The pendulum could swing in your favour or otherwise.
It all depends on you.
I really want to help you get justice
So put the bulky evidence aside & let’s talk business.
Coz the justice you seek no longer rests on your evidence.
The justice you seek now rests in your wallet.
