The Veil of Amici
The Veil of Amici
In chambers of power, a force unseen
Justice Alito’s veil of amici convene
A deceptive dance with hidden strings
Blurring lines, unjust harmony rings.
Beneath the robe, impartiality fades
As amicus whispers sway charades
A silent hand, manipulating scales
Justice’s blindness, the ship derails.
Spotlight shines on this dubious ploy
A glimpse of a much bigger decoy
A system tainted, its essence marred
Where truth and fairness stand forever jarred.
Justice speaks, yet justice is mired
In the shadows of amici so admired
An old truth now revealed, bitter and stark
A beacon dimmed, a constitutional spark.
Justice Alito, step out from the haze
Renew the oath and the trust that betrays
Bring back the balance, light the way
For justice to prevail, come what may.
Bigger problem, amicus, justice, fairness, impartiality, manipulation
