Injustice

On Patriarchal watch
the feminine is on trial –

crimes noted, abetted,
intervention and consequence
murdered –

suspects ride a pendulum
where witnesses are criminal
and the vulnerable run

no peace to be had
while justice sleeps.

I’ll sleep, thinking about these lines tonight……
“no peace to be had
while justice sleeps.”
