That's the thing about us lawyers - if at all possible, we will consume each other.

In recent years personal injury attorneys and trial lawyers have attacked the food industry with numerous lawsuits alleging that these businesses should pay monetary damages to those who, of their own accord, consume too much of a legal, safe product.
The only real lawyers are trial lawyers, and trial lawyers try cases to juries.

Love Consuming
Thoughts of you consume me
Hold power over me every
Second of the day
I wonder at His glory that is
a woman and ask who is
She that walks so proudly?
Thoughts of you consume me
Hold power over me every
Dream I dream
You walk through me like
A chill on winters eve. I see
You but I am but a shade
Unto you
Thoughts of you consume me
Hold power over me every
Breathe I take
You are the forest to my trees
That hide me from your sight.
We dance the dance of the
Stars and thoughts of you
Consume me
Thoughts of you consume me
Hold power over me every
Death I die
Her being, her beauty burns
Through me. I died in her
Passing when she smiled unto
Me
Thoughts of you consume me
Hold power over me every
Kiss you kiss me...

Be A Candle....
be a candle
to me
shine in darkness
consume yourself
cry, cry,
in silence
consume yourself
be those tears
wasted on
the graveyard
of the one
you love
be gone....

Consume
drawing out energy
to place the magic in
happiness consumes all
and draws out more energy
to close the case its in
and smiles consume all
so i will draw out all my energy
to break my stupid frown
and happiness will consume me
a flood of smiles will drown
all who find this magic in
the hearts of happiness
that consume all

We are taught to consume. And that's what we do. But if we realized that there really is no reason to consume, that it's just a mind set, that it's just an addiction, then we wouldn't be out there stepping on people's hands climbing the corporate ladder of success.

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.

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

Bio force
Plants consume elements.
Animals consume plants.
Microbes eat both till to minerals.
This is the cycle of bio-force.
Individual death is least mattered.

The Law Classes
when the semester opens
i usually create a bing bang to those who come
wanting to be lawyers, telling them that the
study of law is not that easy, in fact,
an eternal damnation,
for laws are made by man and man
changes laws everytime he wants to sneeze.
and they think i am bluffing testing their capacity
for endurance, like Louise, i tell them the story
of sisyphus,
how he pushes the stone
meaninglessly
on top of the mountain, and repeats the acts
with diligent efforts,
though there seems to be
no reward at the end,
but how can they ever believe me
when lawyers at every bend
ride in flashy cars and
live in luxury
smoke the best cigars
and take most of the money
well respected in the highest
echelons of political society,
and i tell then again
to do their best, whatever that be,
when the class is dismissed,
they all laugh & tell themselves
what is there in law
that should consume them,
when laws are not really well studied or applied and
only ten percent
shall be faithfully used
or followed at the end,
to succeed,
they say,
law is set aside,
what challenges them more
perhaps
is the subtle art of lying,
without blinking an eye
for truth, a kind of
projection,
image packaging,
psywars,
knowing the gods,
the art of pulling stings
and fidelity
to networks
pointing
where Zeus lives,
and knowing fully well
what thunderbolts to use,
integrity? principle?
honesty?
they all laugh again,
you cannot eat them
just lick them.
and so, i tell them again next meeting, that
sisyphus
is nothing but just a myth, forget it,
meanwhile
the oral recitation shall start
and there they are
their heads fuming
like mad
monsters..

I am really impressed by lawyers who write books and tell us that they never lost a case. Most lawyers who have never lost a case have not had enough hard cases. But there are very difficult cases out there.
