We can speak about the institution, but ultimately the bar is the group that both is in touch with the public on the one hand and understands the judicial institution on the other.

Marriage is a great institution, but I'm not ready for an institution yet.
Because Their World Is Sinking
because their world is sinking
they move out
to save themselves and
finding your world
they knock at your door
politely,
as you open it
they start doing the traders' talk
they want to be your new house cleaners
for the meantime
that they do not have a world of their own
you refuse them
and then you close the door almost
hitting their faces
outside your world
a police officer is studying the pages
of the penal code
wanting to find the provision that
may put them all to jail

The fate of institutions
If an institution must run
It must generate enough funds
To feed the people who run it.
If it must survive the founder,
Running it must be profitable
For the subsequent personals.
Otherwise, however noble
The cause is or however holy
The faith founded is,
The institution is bound to die.
The seed alone is helpless for its growth.

The marriage of a man and woman is the most enduring human institution, honored in all cultures and by every religious faith. It's in this institution that children are meant to be nurtured. We know this after thousands of years of human experience.

I hope that the institution will succeed in maximizing students' potential in the same way. I will give all of my stock to this institution. It will own the Bose Corporation and be funded by the Bose Corporation.
Money Purchases Only Pearls
“Such a nice girl
funny she never married.
Such a nice girl
money purchases only pearls.”
Times past money
also purchased colonial slaves.
“Wisdom Sentimentality Sincerity.
Are free
inflating hearts that can be.
Above risen
treacherous currents
embroiled
in bitter judgement misty
dark green sea.”
Transportation
punished both major and petty
crimes in penal
transportation seven year sentence
or life to America.
To return home
a capital offence
execution by
judicial process.
Exile thought
a crime major deterrent.
Transportation
to America seen as a humane
profit productive
alternative to execution.
Penal transportation
free labour practical profitable
convicts bled to economically
develop colonial territories.
Transportation crime
often; only stealing a loaf of bread
to feed a starving family.
Quoted lines adapted from ‘Penal Transportation: Forgotten Gaelic Slaves’. See also‘The Saga Of A Convict Lass’, the original template poem for a collage of poems, symbolic of collective convict suffering, yet unique experiences of individuals, during the penal transportation period; ‘Flogged Upon Rack At Sea’ and ‘Sentenced For The Term Of Her Natural Life’ by Terence George Craddock.

I find the family the most mysterious and fascinating institution in the world.
Is not marriage an open question, when it is alleged, from the beginning of the world, that such who are in the institution wish to get out and such as are out wish to get in.
