For The Lawyers
The poem below is dedicated to the lawyers who are reading. The poem pays tribute to my favorite lawyer - Mohandas Krishna Gandhi.
When Lord Krishna Was A Lawyer
Do you remember
when they kicked
him off a train
in South Africa
because they objected
to the tone
in his skin?
He was not
a very good
lawyer, but
proved sufficient
(with abundant
Soul Force)
to bring the
British Empire
to its knees.
