Political Gain (A poem About The Arkansas Justice System)

Folder: 
random

I will not justify
Your stupid lies
Just so you can
Sleep at night
I will not stand
For more of your lies
When they threaten
Another life tonight
Tell me Arkansas
How many people
Other than the ones
Who have been lucky
Enough to be seen
By a world
Now full of disgust
Thanks to you
Now sit in a prison cell
Being tortured
Not because
Of what they did do
But because you were able to
Lie well enough to convince others
They did do
Your justice system
Would be a joke
That's funny
If it weren't for the innocents
Being tortured
All because you
Would rather be
Corrupted instead of
Do the right thing
And why?
Simple
Political gain
