Lawyers

Order pays - no
question
Now back off, or
back down - it's a world
of questions and answers
or silence

You have rights, then
few rights....even
no rights
The difference, pray silence, be
a gown, a wig; the bench
and the stand...

In their court, dear weary
the ball
is always in play!

I have to defer to my numerous friends, family and almost-foes who chose to be so learned that it pays no bills to fuss by them. The world of law is its own world, and we must remain beholden to its glamour and gloom, its pleasures and plights, its nestling and nest. Oh, may it please their learnedships to make the game great name and shame, for there are counsels and there are come-sells. Lest we score an own-goal, I rest my case!
