Injustice is triumphant

Robes show us men as seers.
There are seers without robes.
The world sees men by robes.
Injustice is triumphant

It has something to do with the facts and the law and who the judges are. So I think lawyers sometimes exaggerate their role in winning and losing. Lawyers do have a role, and a major role, but they're not the only players in this game.

Robes and Bodies

Kings, juries or priests are known by their robes.
Robes, not their bodies, demand attentions.
Souls are known by bodies they occupy.
Bodies shade souls as robes shade bodies.

Politically Incorrect Feminist Poem 1

So how would you feel if
you were lined up with the
80 virgins (I always thought
it was 76 - tough...)
lined up for
a 'martyr'
who'd just killed 80 people
including the odd fun-da-mental-ist?

Read the small print, honey.

(And that goes for you too, guys,
if the guy was.. well, you know?)

Just askin'...

We're talking about the lawyers for the United States of America. And I think it's very, very important that the lawyers be comfortable being very candid and open about their views on very sensitive issues affecting the United States.

Lawyers In Love

I cant keep up with whats been going on
I think my heart must just be slowing down
Among the human beings in their designer jeans
Am I the only one who hears the screams
And the strangled cries of lawyers in love
God sends his spaceships to america, the beautiful
They land at six oclock and there we are, the dutiful
Eating from tv trays, tuned into to happy days
Waiting for world war iii while jesus slaves
To the mating calls of lawyers in love
Last night I watched the news from washington, the capitol
The russians escaped while we werent watching them, like russians will
Now weve got all this room, weve even got the moon
And I hear the u.s.s.r. will be open soon
As vacation land for lawyers in love
