No Jail Time

We all saw it We all heard it We all read it And smelled it. Meanwhile Deedeepee is rotting in jail For probably having committed a similar crime Some do the crime and others don't do the time Similarly, some go to Heaven and others go to Hell. The world smelled it The world read it The world heard it And we saw it. Some people are above the law Some people are found to have no fault Somewhere, God needs to tight the bolt So all can hear the unwonted song of the crow. No jail time, no fine and no probation However, we all felt the humiliation For God's sake, an Honorable Christian like Jimmy Would have never been in such a gnarly quandary. We all smelled it We all read it We all heard it And the world saw it. No further explanation We wonder if justice was done No further condemnation History is always fair, just and fun. The world heart it The world read it The world saw it And we smelled it. Copyright © January 2025, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved Hébert Logerie is the author of several books of poetry.
