Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Plaintiffs and defendants
Appellant appellee
Pleader, respondent
Opposing counsel
Judge and jury

Actors on the stage
Assigned roles
Scripted lines
Improvisation within limits
Rules upon rules
Written in a secret language
Disguised as our own

Dancing across the floor
Thrust and parry
Synchronized and hitch-step
Partners in the process
Players playing their parts
Validating justice
In the system
If not the outcomes
