The Poet-Trials (Zimmerman)

(I've said it before!)
What’s happening to justice?
Is trial by your peers
meaningless if lawyers choose
those steered by puppeteers?
Both sides are given the same facts
and then debate begins.
It’s very strange that different tacks
decide who sinks or swims.

Observers find the jury’s choice,
of either pro or con,
leaves them unsure if truth prevailed…
or best orator won.

{Regarding truth, but God may know...
  He selects who's sent below.}
