A Juvenile's Sentence

The judge sat in his podium

With all superiority above me.

He said, "How long do you think your

Sentence should be

To be fair?"

I said, "Sir,

To be frank,

I have done the worst of crimes

So choose any sentence because

I really don't care."

The man said, "Young man,

Was that an

Honest answer?"

I nodded

And put my head down.

And his gavel hit as hard

As lightning hits the ground.

The tall, dark-haired woman from the jury spoke, "Juvenile,

Look me in the eye-

And tell me, Do you think

A life sentence is fair?

After hearing that,

then would you care?"
