In The News-Edwards Trial


John Edwards don’t get cocky.
The judge that set you free
did not say you were innocent…
just had a hung jury.
It’s obvious selecting
a jury of your peers
had lawyers oft neglecting
to check between their ears.
Some seemed to buy the story…
the millionaires who gave
cared not for White House glory
nor if he was a knave.

Too bad!   They set a precedent
for pols to steal our alms…
for Congress or for President
filch freely, without qualms.
