Are we to ever
get clarity?
From the entangling maze
Of asinine laws propping
The blind stagger of justice
Stumbling time barred
Across limiting precedents
Limitations of statutes
Unlimited adjournments
Deaf to inner calls of conscience
Alive to bluster of legal counsel
Insatiable for burden of proof
Obsessing over nitpicky detail
(excerpted from Litigious Lives appearing
in Modern Traumas)
