Is justice safe,
Is she immune to this epidemic malignancy
Gripping minds, coiling around the masses?
Is she abused, her stance of dignity a façade,
Do powerful men harass her, force her
To tilt her scales in their favour?
Walking down the street, is she safe from the
Ignoble stares, from the hands that
Take delight in her coercion?
Does she remove her blindfold,
Does she fight,
Do we fight with her,
Or do we abandon her,
Only remembering her when she is manipulated,
Shaking our heads at the unjustness of it all.
She gives us what we deserve, do we?
