Justice


Funny thing, justice...

Black seeking justice for the crime of being black

White seeking justice for being white

 

Politicians speak of justice as much as if they could stop the rain

 

Children cry for justice after dropping an ice cream cone on a hot sidewalk

 

Justice.

 

Justice does not exist for this world filled with so many human hearts
