Peter Pan, a Dream Poem
“They arrested Gus, but turned Harry loose,
though he was the mastermind.”
My senior partner laughs.
And you wonder why?
“They charged Gus with emotional terrorism.
Is that even a crime?”
It’s strategy. When you’re an old lawyer,
you’ll understand.
No I won’t, I’ll stay a boy
unsettled by the shadows of deception.

unsettled by the shadows of deception, as we all should be,
but what a rolling along beautiful phrase and way to put it
A lawyer poem! A creative take on a field known for its own sort of creativity.
Clap your hands if you believe! I am enjoying being a voyeur to your dreams.
Thank you so much, everyone, for your kind comments.
