Throughout The Ordeal

You and I both know she is not innocent.

'She's a liar.'

Maybe that's why she was cleared,
Of any wrong doing.
What 'law' did she break.
What offense did she commit.
So she lied.

Throughout the ordeal...
There she sat,
Continuing to uphold those standards...
That are valued.
She is already set to become a 'star'.

I don't understand why there is such an uproar.
She represented the people and their way of life,
Magnificiently.
Didn't you think?
