Justice Dis/served

the backstreet angels

are carrying their artwork

to the courtrooms.

the society called the cops

and the studios

which were too honest

to swallow,

were raided,

i believe,

the corrupted are ashamed

to see their dirty work

displayed in galleries

they fund.

while justice is too busy

fighting dementia

to attend the processions;

heaven bleeds.

but worry not,

soon,

they will all.
