No counsel with
them
no one beside
them;
Their advocates
silenced
on the chopping
block,
awaiting the
budget axe.
No one there with
them
to balance the
scales;
No one there with
them
to speak for them
to rail against their
power.
The inequity of
justice
in denying them
counsel;
The higher wage
earner
often the
aggressor,
with the suit at
his side.
